My grandfather passed away yesterday, 10/29/06 at 12:05 am. The day before that I got the phone call i've been dreading for the last several months. Dropped my radio, keys and grabbed my shit . Called Kenny as I was leaving work, and left him a voicemail saying I had to cancel our one month plans cuz it looked like the end for gramps. He called me back and asked if I wanted him there, I said "no, I need you here". (we share a hatred for hospitals)...so he met my family for the first time in the ER. Showed up with coffee in hand w/o my even asking (so amazingly sweet to me ) and stayed with me until we all left. Then he spend the night just holding me...letting me cry if ineeded to. Then yesterday he left work early to go back up to the hospital with me and 7 hours later we went home to get some rest,but within an hour of that, my mom called and said the nurse thinks gramps only has an hour. So I told Kenny I had to do this part on my own, and he wouldnt let me go anywhere til i calmed down. He died 5 minutes after I got to his bedside. I went numb....couldnt think, cry, feel anything. I just looked at him, I couldnt stop staring.....five minutes before mom called me at the house, a breeze came from the direction in my room wherethere arent windows, and a flash of his face through the years went through my mind. SO I knew he was holding on for me .
