I Don't Fear Death

I don't fear death, myself but no matter how many I witness its still hard to experience. My uncle died today after struggling with cancer. He and I were close, In his last stages it was difficult to see him, he had changed so much he was unrecognisable. and his laboured breathes was heart breaking to hear. Watching his distraught wife trying to cope, words could not suffice for the pain she is feeling. Even a hug was futile to absorb her grief. I wanted to say so many things to him, but the words would not come forth. I wanted to hear his teasing jokes his wide smile and sparkle in his eyes but they remained closed and he was unresponsive. He was loved and will be missed by many, the person that everyone will remember as the life of the party as he danced and sang his favourite songs of Elvis... he was a huge fan.I will remember him as a good friend and a great Uncle...
