Hi, my name is Seroza and I am writing in behalf of Kelson Silvas loved ones. The last 2 months have been a roller coaster of emotions. My father inlaw has been fighting cancer (leukemia) for 11 years. When he was diagnosed he was given 5 years to live. He surpassed it by far and we all believed it was because he wanted to spend as much time with his family and grand kids. He lived for his family. No matter what condition he was in, he made sure he spent that time with his family, especially the grand kids. He was so selfless and giving, always giving everything he had whether it was material, emotional or spiritual. He was not perfect as none of us are but he sure did spend his last years making up for it and being pretty damn close to perfect in our eyes. He made our house a home and our family whole. He has truly shown us the true meaning of forgiveness and love. He was superman to us and cancer unfortunately was his cryptonite. The sweetest but sad thing is in his last days, although we knew he was in pain, he insisted he was not. You see my father inlaw was a stubborn man. He knew he was dying and he wanted to spend his last days with his family without us suffering knowing that he was in pain. So stubborn up to the point where he waited days later after he was taken falling into a coma for his family to say goodbye. Although unconscious we know he heard every word, because tears fell from his eyes once his son told him "enough dad, rest now" and shortly after leaving his room just making it to the parking lot, he left us. He once again put us first knowing we needed closure. Our aunty Kori has helped us dearly in everything and made it possible for us to say our last good byes despite everything going on around us. Please help us lessen this burden on her, his kids and wife, family and help us put dad (Kelson Silva) to rest and give him the cremation he wanted being scattered with his mom. Please help us honor his words that he has always told us in a hard situation and not worry because "everything is gonna be alright, have faith in him☝".
Thank you,
Seroza
