No More Pain, Pravein
It breaks my heart to tell you that 4 year old Pravein Prakash passed away recently.
Last year, the plight of Pravein, warded at Subang Jaya Medical Center for stomach cancer and undergoing chemotheraphy touched many hearts.
Many musicians, artistes, personalities, celebrities, the media and people from all walks of life chipped in to stage a charity concert to raise the RM150,000 needed for Pravein’s medical expenses.
Here’s a link to the story, if you’re interested:
http://pinch.com.my/Pinch%20%205_pinchindark.htm
Among the many many kind and generous people who contributed were Adrian Doshi, Albert & Vijay, Alex Peters, Alex Wong and his band Singletrackmind, Allen Pereira, Amizan Ariffin, Arvind Pasricha, Aseana Percussion Unit, Bala, Brad Krishnasamy, Collin Jensen, Errol d'Cruz, Fats & Vernon, Fredo, Gerard Singh, Jerry Felix, rally ace Karamjit Singh, Kenny Tay, Leonard Tan, Malaysian Idol Jac Victor, Raymond Chia, and Raymond from Revival Sound.
If I have inadvertently missed out your name, please accept my sincere apologies.
What completely stupefies me is the fact that I can’t understand the concept of putting an innocent child on this earth, giving him cancer and then killing him 4 years later. What did any child do to deserve that?
Of course, I confess I’m an idiot and I don’t understand a lot of things. Especially the laws of karma.
Anybody have any answers? I’m all ears.
