Have you lost a family member before? You will understand what it feels like losing a young family member.
I couldn't believe that he died at 26 till I saw the burial flyer, it's so painful to believe the whole situation, lots of money was spent but we couldn't save him.
He's my younger cousin brother, the news of his death broke me down and I had to travel to the village for his burial.
A little about the deceased (my little cousin)
He's a young guy that grew up in a family of ten, all his life was all about struggling, at 18 he left home in search of greener pasture, he learned tiling skill and was doing so well, sadly he was able to get a good education and this affected the way he view things including his life and health.
Fast forward to early January when he feel sick, he didnt visit the hospital but decided to do self treatment, he didn't inform anyone that he was sick untill it became so bad, before he could be taken to the hospital it was too late, sadly we lost him.
We had to bury him.
Seeing him lying lifeless in the coffin made everyone in the family cry a whole lot, a lot of his friend came around and they were all crying because he was a very humble guy, that loves to help people in need.
The clergy man said a lot of things during the funeral service, the people who came around made some contribution to support the family and after the service he was led down the grave, it was so painful looking at the labourers covering his lifeless body with sand.
Reflecting on the way we play together, the last time we spoke I promised to give him my shirt, he was making fun of my mom who will always find fault, everything we planned we couldn't achieve it before death snacthed him away from our family.
All hope is not lost, we will see him in the near future will all our dead loved ones will be back to life.
