Well...my trip up north was interesting. By the time me and Kenny got up to my cabin it was about 2:30/3 in the morning. We stayed up for another hour or so talking with my mom and then went to bed around 4. 5 AM rolls around and we are woken up by a loud pounding on the door. Brenda the 24 hour nurse that was taking care of my great uncle tells my mom that hes not breathing. My mom and her rush out I wake Kenny up we run over and as I walk in my mom looks at me and goes hes gone. Unfortunatly she didnt say it in time and I walked into the room where he was laying in the hospital bed. I felt awful. He had asked if I would be coming up and I didnt even make it in time. The crazy thing is the nurse had checked on him around 230 and he was fine so he died between 3-5 which was exactly the time I had gotten up there. EMS came, tubes were pulled he was taken away. Had no idea this would be occuring. I was going to visit with him all day Saturday. My mom had told him I was coming up though which was good, at least he knew I was coming. But still, its not the same.
Kenny and I went into town and walked along the beach, took pictures, talked, shopped, ate food. Got my mind off things. Sunday morning we pretty much did the same thing. That part of the trip was a lot of fun. We saved a dog that was in the middle of the road! We have a secret place now that we discovered. The weather was beautiful and it was nice to get away from down here. On the way home it was late, and we ran outta gas at like 96 and 12 mile rd. Tony came and picked us up and we got gas. We laugh about it now but oh man at the time it wasnt fun! Going back up north tonight for the viewing(again) and funeral tomorrow. have a good one~

25 more days til my birthday :)
