"A 24-year-old deaf quadriplegic man from California has penned a farewell letter to his loved ones after he realised he was dying.

David Rose, who was born with cerebal palsy and other disabilities and had never been able to hear, wrote the letter when he was diagnosed with pneumonia.He asked his sister to post it online for him if he died.

When he died last week, the message was posted to his blog and it quickly went viral online.

In the letter he said his main question was whether there would be sound in heaven.

Rose was a frequent user of social media, posting tweets and blog posts using a Tobii computer that read his visual instructions.Below is his final letter in full:

today I found out i have pneumonia.

it not the nice kind either, where you cough for few days then go home and have ice cream.

it the bad kind where you probably donot go home

it kick ass on able bodied people who go gym and can lift cars! so i do
not know what going happen to me, i have never been to a gym and have
been in 2 comas. although second one was very nice because i had silly
dreams, mostly about my best friend kate.

but in my life i have 3 friends have severe cp like me and got this kind
pneumonia. they went to hospital because they have it and never came
home. first was girl name tabitha we only 10 year old she was same
class as me in special school. that was hard because i did not
understand why she never came back i was too young and growing up deaf
it hard for teachers explain things like that. i did not understand what
happen to her until a few years later.

when i 17 have friend name john in my rec group. he had bad cough one
day and they took him to hospital. i never saw him again. he used to run
his motor chair into me and we both laugh. no one do that since john.

Last was a nice lady name ellen few years ago. she was older than me
about 35 and live in place i live and had bad cough one day so they take
her to hospital. i miss ellen, she had a nice smile.

so i am write this today and ask nichole that if everything be fine in a
week then trash this and i will write a funny new post with lot of boob
jokes in it. but if i not be around in a week then publish this. so if
you read this now it because i am not around anymore so there are people
i want to thank and few things want to say.

first of all want to ask if there is sound in heaven. i guess there is
but not sure if i want it! here on earth i been happy to be deaf and
nobody seem to be very good at describe what is sound, so i have not
miss it. but i guess if that part of the deal then i have to take what i
get! say a message for me and maybe i will hear it! or maybe angels
know asl i bet they do they are pretty smart lol
