  • My leave continues,

    I've spent the weekend at my grandfathers taking care of him with family. He is home from the hospital (they cannot do anything more for him). So between work and being there I have zero game time. My other cousin Brad (voorhees you know him) is taking this night shift. We've been swapping nights spending the night over there.

    Its actually kinda upsetting in that he is a proud/tough individual and he hates the idea of me (grandson) taking care of him to use the restroom etc. I think he is embarrassed to be thought of as weak. I dunno, but its gut wrenching to see a loved one sick. He's on a steady dose of morphine now to keep the pain in check. Hopefully my family and I can keep him as comfortable as possible. I'm realling considering quit smoking cigarettes now. He keeps smoking an invisible cigarette. Lifting his hand and inhaling even tho there isn't a cigarette. He is hooked up to oxygen, so its even extra strange to see.

    We went to the funeral home to start planning, when he passes, he will be getting full military burial detail, escourt and gun salute have all been arranged. Also a U.S. Army insignia on his coffin.

    I need some sleep

    Spend as much time as you can with him Dan. I didnt have the opportunity to when my Grandmother passed.. and Ive always regretted it.
    Its a terrible time your entire family is going through, so pay no thought to us here, we will be fine.. and our thoughts will be with you..
    I know Im on the other side of the World, but if you need anything, at all.... Im here.

                    sorry to hear dan
                    probably nothing to say can help but i offer one of my poems from a while ago

                    You are gone from my eyes
                    But never gone from my heart
                    You will always be my friend
                    My companion, my everything
                    Though I can’t see you
                    Your memory will always remain with me
                    You will always be apart of whom I am
                    What I shall be
                    What I aspire to be
                    I will think of you each day
                    Remember all the times we shared
                    All the memories we made
                    Always and forever you are my friend
                    In my heart
                    In my memory
                    You will always be till the end of time

                    dont know if its the right place or any good at the moment
