its scary how fast it can happen....just this last wednesday he was up and watching walker, texas ranger and joking around with my mom and i....then a few hours of sleep on everybodys part and it all starts going down hill, he isnt speaking at all now, he cant even enjoy a cig. or a shot of brandy. his eyes remain shut but his chest continues to move up and down. he is no longer there but his body hasnt let go yet. and its hard because all i have is family right now, and what few friends i have....i need a shoulder to cry on or just someone who can help me get away from it...make me .laugh about stupid shit to get my mind off of losing my grandpa. last year it was my grandma this year its my grandpa. :( just needed to vent.
