I found out today that my nephew passed away this past weekend. I am not 100% sure about the details, but my mom said he had a massive stroke and was left in a vegetative state, and the decision was made to take him off life support. Ugh.
The first time I met my nephew was when I picked him up from LAX. He was accepted into the master’s program for Electrical Engineering at UCLA after graduating from college in China. I still remember taking him to get housing and telling him to open a bank account as soon as possible. He had a huge wad of $100 bills. He graduated from UCLA, found a job in the Bay Area. I helped him with some material for his green card application and he just recently received it. I also heard he recently got a girlfriend and bought a house. He was living the American Dream.
I am not sure what is happening now. His parents will probably come to the US and take his body home to China. I think he is only thirty years old. So sad.
