*Cough!* *Cough!*
"I'm sorry my child...I wish I could be with you longer to see you grow...But this is heaven's will. Remember to Eat well... and... find new friends... In the future, get married to a beautiful wife and make a big family...

He was laying on a hospital bed while taking his last breath. The old man wanted to talk to the little kid for one last time before saying goodbye to this world.
