my mom just called a little while ago. I could tell something was wrong from her tone of voice. She called to tell me that my grandpa had passed away this morning. He had pnuemonia and gotten a staph infection in a cut on his arm. The staph infection got into his blood stream and with him being almost 90 his body couldnt hold out anymore.

So if i seem a little far away for a while, just think about me ok ?

thanks everyone for thinking of me and my family!
We had the funeral yesterday! it was such a long day! So sad. Being in my grandparents home without him there felt soooo weird! I hated to leave my grandma, but she was sooo tired!

again thanks everyone!
