Now. On enquiring from gugu this is what I got. Yes it’s so saddening and shocking. Never had any encounter with a person suffering from the same. It’s my first time to hear about the disease.

Now, I’ve tried to reach the lady on phone though walienda hosi morning, she was just sobbing uncontrollably.

Where do you start ukijua the only love of your heart is going to survive for only five years. I know ukienda pale hosi mifuko itakamuliwa sawasawa. This is a young family from humble backgrounds. Hata kama madaktari watawapea so much promises, how do you handle such a situation?

Wewe unaita bibi ya wenyewe dear, utapata mabolingo zako ndani ya glass after getting kidnaped.

This isn’t 1818. Tuko 2018 my fren!
This one is for u.

My childhood best friend died of leukemia… I wept… Refused to eat and became traumatized bc of her death… She was more than a sister… Damn upto now I can’t believe it… Some diseases waaahh…

Nilishtuka sana kuona unaweza survive five years pekee. Sorry for the loss of your friend.

Jamaa inakaa kunguru amekuCheza…ii machungu yote na io thread hapo juu…pole kwa msiba

Thank you… I just watched her suffer… :(:frowning:

Lazima iwe unamwaga ndaani hio sector, all the ladies who call me dear, either nimekamua or i am in the process of kamuaring.

Just comfort them and visit them in person regularly. It’s a long battle from here and sometimes they need people around.

Once ur born in this world and u senses develope u already know u may die anytime, afadhali huyo ako na bonus ati 5yrs, why do u want to burden urself ati umeambiwa mtu ata die around 5yrs time, kuna vijana hulalishwa na waambiwe leo nyinyi mnadedi and within 10 mins Dengu kwa kichwa, Fate is Fate, tell the lady to appreciate and enjoy all she can kama bado kuna time, she may even die b4 the man, we all must die oneday so dont pity, empathise and support instead, Deathe is a passage and ur gona do nothing about it if death comes knocking, be realistic and talk to the lady once the shock subsides. Start there

The diseases is terminal. He might have less than a year.
Have do you overcome this?
Start accepting the reality that your parents, lover might not be there tomorrow. No matter what, either your parents or siblings or yourself will die first leaving the other.
That’s how I have overcome the fear of death and loosing a dear one.

Every week I just ensure that I tell my dear ones that I love them.

I’ll have to visit them bro. Thy are my closest friends though I can’t make it regularly coz of the distance between us. Wako nrb niko mbs.

True. Death is inevitable. Will try to play my part where possible

Fear of death esp for a loved one is so scaring, bearing in mind that this is the only breadwinner in this young family.
There are little kids to take care of plus the burden that comes with medical bills.
You can’t just let it slide.

Pole sana.

Lost my dad through the same - RIP mzee.

Pole sana bratha. MHSRIP.

Just asking for clarifications, how long did he survive after diagnosis?

same like cancer happened to a cuzo, worst part when the diagnosis was done he was at our house in pain, we could not let him know his had already reached the final stages, we just played good, but he knew because no one told him why specimen was taken from his knee, after a few days we lost him, just like that
2. a good buddy of ours was shot in the stomach by a cop juu ya kunguru, guy was a bouncer, seams the cop was purnishing him with a slow death, we all knew his case was over, but we all kept smiling and nothing was done to the cop, ali transfer tu, the guy suffered for about 1week hata doctors were wondering but eventually…

…My Mzee was a doctor and he never revealed the condition to the family till he collapsed one day.
He never managed to pass year one.

Pole sana pia wewe kaka. Hiyo ya cuzo wako was it this myeloid leukemia?

So saddening. I think he told you nothing about it coz he knew survival rates were too low. I tend to believe what Google is saying now about less than five years survival period.

Tough times a head for us and my friend there.
