After approx 9 months of fighting cancer, Ronnie passed away peacefully at 11.25pm on 19 August 11.
A person who never minces his words, a person filled with so much perseverance. He holds much pride in his mahjong skills; am so optimistic even with a close encounter with death. Even when his cancer cells kicked in after stemcell transplant, he remained focused on eating more so that he will gain weight for chemotherapy.
I regret procrastinating my visit to him. I thought having many visitors around will affect his breathing, either that or he will need rest and cant possibly wait for me to reach there.
I prayed, if it's in God's plans, please let the pain end. but I didnt expect... that the pain will end so quickly.
This should teach me to treasure life, and to treasure my family more.
Ronnie, you will be sorely missed.
