Folks like him are ALWAYS the true fighters in life, the ones who were dealt a shitty hand and go at life like we all should. I have a spinal disorder myself, where I have cysts inside my spinal cord that causes pain and eventually will probably paralyze me. But I know things could be much worse so I don't bitch about "why me?".

So sad for your loss. May God be with you and your family in this time of need.
