Exactly a week ago today, one of my friends, Edu, passed away due to a complication with his heart problem. His heart problem was incurable but he might of been able to stay longer with us had a group of swollen veins (on his left shoulder) been diagnosed properly. Even if they had been treated correctly no one knows exactly how much longer he would of been with us. Might of been days, weeks or years. At least it didn't happen at school. I can't even imagine how everyone, including the teachers, could of stomached it.
He loved sport. Even though the docs discouraged it. He carried on to do it anyway, he loved sport. Especially Judo and running. They say that helped to bring on his premature death. So, in a way, he died doing what he loved.
Although he died on Febuary 6th, I, like many others, didn't find out until Monday, Febuary 9th - first day back at school after a week's holiday. I called him on the Saturday but there was no ring so I assumed he had his cell turned off. How was I supposed to know that he had actually passed on?
Heh. The last thing he said to me was: "I am going to get soooo fucking drunk on Monday. Heehee. Can't wait. GO TEAM!"
Makes me laugh. Its a typical Edu line. It just sums him up in one (or two) sentences.
At school we had a minute of silence followed by a minute of applause. Then people read out poems and people dressed in Judo kimonos saluted him. Man...it was just so upsetting. His parents and two brothers were there, too. Then we passed along three posters filled with his photo taken from students in the school. Hah, they were funny, some of them. Someone took a picture of his butt along with a randomer pointing at it. Then there was one of him either laughing insanely or about to sneeze. And, of course, him posing. I've got a few here:
^ Eduuuuu =]
^ With his 'Boyfriends'. n_n
^ From what we could tell he was straight. He just loved to randomly pose like that at times.
^ Our games of Twister always went wrong. The guy on the floor actually got pushed over. And just after this was taken everyone fell down like dominoes 'cause the guy sought his revenge. xDDD
^ Edu shleeeeeping. Awah n_n
^ Yup. He was such a poser.
^ Gawd. I'ma going to miss him so much. Especially in training. He was its heart.

that's so sad. Our area has lost a few people recently too, it's so horrible when we lose somebody who's just amazing.
