It is painful losing a loved one. No matter how natural death is, it is one of the most challenging parts of life. Yesterday, Harambee Stars international player Allan Wanga lost his mother after battling intestinal cancer for quite some time. Allan Wanga's mum succumbed to the disease while undergoing treatment.
