he passed away

this post...
is in rememberence of Uncle Phua...
Uncle Phua is one of the many uncles from church...
he's retired, and he looks just like any of the other church uncles...
married with one great kid...
he passed away today after a battle with cancer...
its actually almost been a year i think... i suppose it's been pretty up and down...
from the time he was first discovered to have growths in the colon and liver, and then the first biopsy showed benign growths... and then a couple of months ago they re biopsied and discovered malignancies...
and then rapidly downhill..
its sad... because uncle phua is one of the friendliest uncles in church... always saying hi to everyone, close to his son, helping out anyway he can... encouraging ppl... even when he discovered his illness...
hmm... its actually been quite a bad weekend in spite of the recently passed exams...
first juliang getting the relapse and now uncle phua...


gotta keep praying...
