Tuesday 13th October 2009....my neighbour's son passed away suddenly. He complained of severe chest pains suddenly and his friends sent him to the hospital or clinic. The doctor tried his level to save him but it was all in vain. This young man was only 29 years old....in the prime of his career and life. It was so unbelievable. In this modern age it seems the heart attack syndrome is happening amongst the young people. Why? Is it because of the food we eat or is it because of stress? The doctor or anybody for that matter can't give an answer. All one can say is it just happens.
In retrospect my sister indeed had a lucky escape so as to speak. She too had the chest pains on a Tuesday. She is alright now, thank God. In a way i was glad i was there when it happened. I just kept praying for her. I remembered that that very afternoon just i felt an urge to sing praises and just kept repeating certain prayer confirmation. So when it happened that night, i did not panic or felt any worry....it was as if everything was under the control of someone greater than i.
Well, life is uncertain but death is certainly certain. It will happen to everyone at anytime....so we must be prepared, even though it may sounds morbid.
