Portia’s Island

My uncle died last week. thankfully, he did not suffer that long.  He had been having trouble breathing and taking in food because of a tumor that has grown in his throat.  The doctors said it was lymphoma or something like that, a terminal case. Brought about by years of smoking and unhealthy living.  In the end, he had to rely on a respirator, and a tube that delivered food to his stomach.  And after two week, his system (or his will) finally gave up. And he was gone.
