Uncle Frank

Dec 11, 2005 21:53

For the past two weeks my uncle frank's condition had gotten worst. last weekend he couldnt move and had to stay in bed. all of my dad's sisters and brothers came together at my uncles house and spent his last days with him. ALL 12 of them. he past away on tuesday. when my mom told me i was glad he wasnt suffering anymore and in a better place. he is the closest relative to me that has past away so far. today was the funeral. at the funeral i was trying hard to be strong and not cry...it worked but everyone kept looking at me as if i wasnt human. but with me things like that dont hit me right away. it has to sink in.i got teary eyed when i overheard my brother tell my dad "i love you dad" and also when i saw the front pew with only 11 Vallejo's instead of 12. then i felt totally horrible when i found out that all the nieces and nephews were there except me and my cousin who goes to A&M. they all got to see him for one last time. but i didnt bc i was here "studying". i didnt even make use of my time here. i could have been with my family in austin...all of us together for one last time...but i wasnt. it already past now i cant do anything about it but all i want to say is even though your family may drive you crazy at times and you wish you can escape, they are the ones that will love you unconditionally no matter what. no matter how fat or skinny you get. no matter how ugly or pretty you are. no matter how rich or poor you become. whether you fail or succeed. they will still love you and care for you waaaay more than anybody else in the world will ever bc they have a connection with you that no one will ever have and can never take away. a connection that no one can really explain.

sorry to cut this off but i need to study.

life wasnt what i thought it was 24 hours ago
im not who i thought i was 24 hours ago
