While in the hospital, the doctors   40     a tumor (瘤) in his lungs. They told him that he had lung cancer and due to previous illnesses, they could not operate and he was too   41   for chemotherapy (化疗).

    It was around Thanksgiving and by Christmas his condition worsened. The cancer spread and in late January his sister away at college too, called him crying and said she was on her way home because the doctors told their family that their   42   had only a week to live, that by the weekend he would   43    be with them. Their family came in from around the country and stayed next to his side.

    It was not until then that he   44   that true love did exist and would survive beyond death. Every night as his grandfather grew more fragile, he would   45   sweet words to grandmother, Madge. The night before he died grandmother was walking out of his room and he said to her “I love you Madgie baby”.

    The next morning he received a phone call at work that grandfather had passed during the night. Throughout his short battle   46   cancer, he realized how much two people can love each other and he realized how much it means to be loved and give love. It is the greatest   47   on earth and it lasts beyond life because you never forget your one true love.
