AMEN TO THAT!

My Uncle just passed away 6 months ago from Colon and Liver Cancer. It was one of the hardest things in the world to watch. Some days he was fine and other he could not move. Towards the end of his days knowing there was no hope he was not able to put aside his pride. He could not admit to himself that his time had come. He refused to sign over papers giving his children and his Wife the rights to all their financial assets. The day before his passing he had one last talk with my father (his youngest brother) and finally gave up. The following morning he was gone.

I don't think there is anything harder on a man than to know he has become helpless.
