Life is never easy

I remembered just a few hours ago during my lecture, i told a friend that life is short, do whatever you want and eat whatever you like. Never would i know that it can really be so true.
I was told that a friend of my dad died this afternoon. He is only 50 years old, with a wife and children. He died of heart attack cum stroke if i din get my info wrongly. In just one night, it changed the whole happy family into one which can do nothing but wait in the hospital and wait for their husband and dad to wake up from his coma.
I thought that, the happy ending of waking after a long coma, doing physiotherapy and learning the lesson, be very careful with health and the whole family looking forward to life will soon comes to reality but it isn't coming true this time.
I felt sad. though i never see him before, i felt sad. sad for him, sad for his family. It is really important to go for regular checkups when u start to turn 40 at least. He is diagnosed with diabetes, high blood pressure and maybe high cholestrol. Before this, he and his whole family knows nothing about his hidden illness. Before the major heart attack and stroke, he already discovered an intense pain in his chest but he chose to ignore. "But for" he go for check up, he might not land up in this situation.
I pray hard that he will go heaven. Pray hard that his family will tide through this major problem and get on with life. I know its difficult but they have to.. Lets pray for them.
