I just learned last night that my Uncle Jimmy is dying too. Lung cancer. No surprise, considering his lifestyle, but of course I still feel horrible for him. He doesn't know I know, because my parents didn't tell me, Sissy did... I figured something was wrong, because they just suddenly up and moved him and his trailer in our backyard. Apparently his family didn't want to take care of him, just as always. I've been unkind to him, because he's not the kind of guy I generally get along with, but... I've known Jimmy all my life, so I at least love him in the way you'd have to love anyone that familiar, whether you like them or not. He's depressed enough about his family, so I won't do anything to upset him. I feel like I should even do something for him, but I don't know what.
