I haven't written in here forever, but I figure you guys should know..Grandpa Holtzlander has passed away. Some of you guys met him, even stayed the night at his house with me when we were younger, but he was awesome. I basically grew up at his house after my parents got divorced and stayed there every weekend. Two weeks ago, they gave him 6 months to live, 3 days ago, they gave him 2 days. He passed at 12:15 today. I went and stayed with him one night where he was reaching out for me in the middle of the night and cried with me. He couldn't talk. I have not been closer with anybody in my entire life. What's worse is that my grandma, who I was also very close with, passed away when I was 9 or 10. That day is coming up on Wednesday, which will probably be the same day as the funeral. It's going to be really rough. I'm also worried about Emily. She's a lot like me, and she holds everything in like I did. Not only has she lost Grandpa Holtzlander, but she lost my mom's mom 4 months ago, who she was really close to. She doesn't act like it even bothers her, yet she gets teary-eyed when she talks about it. If you pray, to whoever you pray, just pray for her. I'm going home tonight and trying to tell her it's okay, but she needs prayers. She's always been so strong with all the medical problems, she grew up really fast. She's seen my mom and dad break down over her problem so many times, she had to be strong for everyone else. She's just a kid and she shouldn't have that taken away from her.
