a blog entry i was going to write for the hipster dad but gave up on... so this is maybe 1/10th of what i wanted to write but fuck it...
I wasn't sure if I was going to write about this on here or not but I know many of you have gone through the same thing before or are even possibly going through it right now. My grandmother has been diagnosed with cancer. Highly progressed lung cancer to be exact. The outlook is bad - no chance of survival. She is too weak to withstand chemotherapy and the doctor just told us to make her as comfortable as possible. It came as quite the blow to the whole family as her husband, my grandfather just passed away a few months ago.
If theres one "good thing" I can say about the situation it's that I'm glad Sierra isn't old enough to feel hurt from it. Losing a loved one is a terrible feeling and I want to shield my little girl from any pain for as long as I possibly can.
