This is my friend May sitting next to her boyfriend Joe Yang. They had a love for each other that they’ve never experienced before. He passed away on August 3, 2007.
He was in a car with his uncle and brother on the way to go fishing and these guys drove by and shot at the car. One of the bullets bounced off the window side and hit Joe on the side of his neck. They rushed to the hospital.
May called me and my cousin that night crying. Than we all started to cry. I didn’t know him that much, but me and my cousin were talking about him that night and it was weird how this all happened because we were JUST talking about him right before May called us.
Apparently those guys that shot at them, thought that Joe was in some sort of gang that they were trying to hit up a while ago, but he wasn’t. Joe was in a coma for about a week.
May went there every single day to see him, care for him, and tell him that she loved him. But he never woke up, said a word, or made any sound.
May told us that his brain was dead and he was on life support and that they had to soon pull the cord at 10am the next day. She didn’t know if she should go or not.
She ended up going, and all his family and friends were there to see him go.
This is her now 3 years later, and she still loves and thinks about him all the time. He was her first love. This is a picture of her celebrating his birthday.
She’s a strong girl, and even though this dramatic thing happened to her, she still manages to keep that smile on her face.
Hold those you love and care for close, cause you never may know what could happen at any second.
