Very sad morning

:(
This morning at about 5.45am my father woke me up and told me that my auntie's husband is going to pass away very soon. We left our house after that to head to University Hospital to visit the patient. Before this, I have visited the patient for a few times for the last 4 months and he was unconscious all the time. This was caused by the heart attacked. The blood did not reached the brain for more than 45 minutes during the attack. This caused the brain to damage. For 4 months he could not do anything except lying on the bed and the food was supplied through his nose.

Ok, when I reached the hospital, I met my cousins and my uncle and had some chat. It was at the emergency place. Then I had a peep with my father at the emergency room of my auntie's husband. He was struggling to breathe and he looked as if he was suffering. That time it was expected 1 hour before he going to pass away. After that my father was discussing with his nephew about the preparation of the place of burial. I was waiting for quite a while and then decided to go to the lavatory. After I returned to the place where everybody were gathered, there were no one there. I quickly rushed to the emergency room and saw many people at my auntie's husband side. He was critically ill and looks very exhausted and about to die. The computer monitor showed many red sign all over the screen and a nonstop beeping sound was heard rapidly. There was a nurse and a doctor observing the patient. All my relatives were saying their prayers and suddenly I saw his breathing stopped. I saw on computer monitor, instead of numbers on it, it replaced by a dash, -- and a straight line was seen to show there was no heartbeat. But my relatives still saying their prayers. I think my auntie's husband died peacefully without any problems. Then the doctors officially told the family that he is gone. The maid who took care of him was crying terribly. I felt sad for the family but I forgot to wish condolence to them.

I felt very sad but it makes me realize that the world is only temporary. You can be rich, beautiful, smart, greedy, arrogant, famous or powerful but in the end you will end up buried in the soil and as the wind blows, you will be forgotten. Some people might want to quarrel all the time, hurt peoples feelings and cheat others but they forgot that they will end up being buried in the graveyard just like everyone else. So it is better for us not to be greedy and arrogant to others because in the end we will loose everything when we die.

Ok, I think I'm going to study now. Sorry if my story is sad.. I will post happy story next time!

ps. I will check my english error later.. If there is..

arif, you missed burial event in KB that evening. Alot of people attending the sembahyang jenazah. The driver of the kereta jenazah took only five and a half hours to take the body from KL to KB. He did a great job. He didn't stop on the way because he said he didn't want the dead body to be alone in the van. I think he did a great job. When the body was in Mok Nik Moh's house, many people wanted to see the mayat so the face end was opened for them to see. The body was buried after Isya' prayer.
