On - Off

They say life is a journey but just recently I witnessed one of the shortest journeys I've ever seen. Seventeen days. That was how long MJ lasted in this world. He was conceived with an abnormality where his intestines are outside. I don't know the exact medical term for that but upon being born he was subjected to several operations. He also had 4 heart attacks and then his organs failed one by one until he died of E. coli.

With technology the baby's life was prolonged but it was an infection that eventually got him. I really wouldn't be surprised given that his body was all weak from the major operations he had. Now he is resting in peace.

My condolences to the mother and father who are very close friends of mine.
