Icon9 a story of two soldier fought hard who fought to the end

This was a sad story and one I may not forget is two family member I used to had that pass away 1 year ago one was my uncle who was a marine fought in Vietnam only to fight a war that left him on a bed dying with one quarter of a lung not working and a heart that have to work with med he had a chose to live but slow dying or pull the plug he pick to end the suffering in June 2014 he die the other family member who was a Korean war vet army and a granddad who had kidney cancer then it went to his liver he was slowly becoming skinner were he was on the bed and on September 2014 same year after my uncle pass away was the last day my granddad was alive the last thing I say was see you around papaw 5 minute later after I left the house he die. They made me happy and now there long gone it just something that was crawling in my mind for so long even when I saw on this website that I read was the part of the donation for cancer victim And it may had brought back the day before the event and it something that it hard to see somebody dying that you know that you never see them again and it suck but that life we live and we die.
