Life is unfair

My uncle passed away this morning. He had been fighting cancer for the past two years and finally could not hang on any longer. The saddest part about it is that everyone was expecting it to happen. Although that doesn't make it any easier to swallow.

He was a great person - always smiling and cracking jokes. He had nothing but love for everyone. He was also a very accomplished person, attending the most prestigious university in India and holding a prominent position at the World Bank in DC.

It was very frustrating to see someone who had always been good to everyone else around him suffer like he did.

Cancer is just horrible. I hope he was able to enjoy the past couple years despite it.
