He was driving a motorcycle one afternoon and crashed onto a bus. I received a text message from his twin brother that he is on a critical condition. Knowing ’bout what happened. I was so worried. I kept on crying for almost every minute every time I remember him. I want to go to the hospital to see him, but I can’t because I was rushed to the hospital early that morning, and if I have to go, I have to travel 2 hours to get there, So, there’s no other way, but to stay put, a few minutes had passed, his older brother sent me a text message. Then, I asked what the reason of the incident was. And then the shocking truth came, he said that he has brain cancer and that he had a serious headache (one symptom of brain cancer) where he lost control of the handle of the motorcycle and the worst part is that his condition is 50-50. I can’t believe what his brother just said to me. I didn’t how to deal with the situation I’m facing. I can’t help but cry. For a few days, he’s slowly recovering from the incident and survived. But it’s not yet the end of his suffering. As months passed, he kept on having bad headaches and kept on fainting. He always got confined in the hospital and fighting for his life. Until now, he is still suffering in his condition. And the saddest part is, his vision is getting bad (another symptom), and now he sometimes wears glasses. It’s hard for me to face this kind of situation because now, I don’t see him that often. He’s miles away from me. But I know he’s going to be fine there because he already has a doctor to take care of him. I’ll just have to accept the truth about the situation I’m dealing with right now. I must have faith to GOD. Comments
