butch's daughter

just last friday that i've heard the news that the 11 years old daughter of butch, one of batchmates when i was hired in etel, died because of dengue. actually two of his siblings was confined in the hospital because of dengue. luckily the younger brother survive dengue due to obvious symptoms. unfortunately the eldest did not survive since there was no signs of dengue like the others because in her case it was internal accumulation of fluid around the heart that force her heart to have difficulty in pumping blood. if only she was able to breathe a few minutes she would have escaped death. but maybe it was her time to that God took her life away from this world.

we went to the wake with some friends and spent few hours with butch. late in the afternoon some of his friends and relatives arrive to spend sometime. TL Ruwi bought a tarpoline of clarrise, butch's daughter, that reminds him more of his daughter so much. he had fallen into tears seeing the picture of her daughter on a big tarpoline. it's hard for one to have lost member of there family but that's life. we all are going to the same direction only that others will have to go ahead of us. we don't know when will be our time but it's better to be prepared. so how prepared are we? are we prepared now or do we still have to wait for tomorrow to prepare?
