An update, sort of. And at least part of what's been making me crazy lately will soon be over. My grandpa died Sunday morning. We went down to the hospital in Auburn Saturday, and once everyone had arrived to say goodbye, they took him off life support around 4pm. I stayed with Mom while my dad and brother went to Mom's cousins' house. It was a lot easier this time, because my grandma died six years ago, she was in the end stages of ovarian cancer. I think, though, that my grandfather had it a lot better, because up until he had his heart attack, he had good health. He looked so relieved when they took the ventilator out, and he rolled over onto his side and just slept. He hadn't been able to sleep on his side ever since he was admitted to the hospital. It was hard to just sit there and watch and wait, but I just couldn't leave Mom alone. Anyway, we came back sans Mom on Sunday, and we'll go back down for the funeral on Friday. I have to call work and tell them I won't be in on Friday night. I'm still kind of numb right now, but I thought you, as my friends, would like to know why I've been all screwy lately.
