A friend of mine has recently lost his two year old daughter to a genetic disorder which has caused her to slowly deteriorate since the day she was born.
Just 8 months ago i saw her smile, something which she could no longer do several weeks after that day.
To be taken so young may be cruel enough, but the worst part is that her father is a Paediatrician and has been for a number of years.
For a man who has devoted his life to the care and well being of children is repaid with a daughter who's illness he cannot treat.
And forced to watch her suffer until the night she could fight it no more.
That is irony.
