My friends ignored me due to my condition/relationship with God on sickbed,i have no one by my side except my son.My wife,our children and I have been in United Kingdom for a long time. We all were suppose to travel to Indonesia in December 2004,but my bad health did not permit me to travel with them which made me and my son stay behind while my wife and our two daughters traveled. If not, all of us would have perished in the disaster.My reason of sending you this mail is due to the sad news that came to me recently from the doctors.
