I rip my heart out...
backstory: My grandpa Ted is dieing. He has been doing very bad. He's on oxygen, he has many problems. and is slowly falling apart.
my family ended up getting to my grandpa Ted's place around 1:30ish. There ended up being a lot more people there than we thought.
When I first got there, I said my hellos. On my way to the bathroom.. my mom was like "Did you see your grandpa ted?" I had not. "he was in the corner. you must've not noticed him"
I definatly didn't recognize him like this:
Not many of my friends know what he looks like. But he use to have hair, a mustache, and he use to be quite heavy. he is the complete opposite. I bursted into tears when I saw him.. he did the same. It was heartbreaking seeing him so different. He use to have a deep voice. He could hardly talk..
I got to see my cousins. It was good to see them again. They're really awesome.
Adam is the nerd. Janet is the "hot topic queen" and Andy, in the wife beater has 2 kids. He is 25, and an awesome person.
Morgan
She would come up to you, and pucker up and smack you with a kiss. She was so adorable. my mom fell in love with her.
and cameron. They're so adorable.
I found out some interesting things about my family.
+ my mom is in the stage where its "all about me". I can tell.
+ my cousins told me and my dad about how their dad (my dads brother) use to beat them. We never knew this. And were very shocked.
+ my cousin adam (the nerd) has piercings in special places. my mom wanted to see them.. she didn't realize what that meant.
before we all left.. my grandpa ted wanted to say something to the whole family. he started talking about how he was so grateful to see everyone. how this made his year, it made his life that we all came to see him. He started to cry hysterically. he couldnt finish talking. We all were crying. Even Cam had tears in his eyes.
I am so glad that I could actually make it out there. I didn't expect to be out there for 7 hours. But it was worth every minute of it. god I love them all.
<3 I really love that side of my family.
