Here comes a bomb.....
First off this is a wide open post..........
Secondly I'm sorry for those that have not seen me post in awhile ...haven't had allot to say of late.
So what is this all about? well as only a small select few know...a friend of mine passed on Thursday evening.
He died of colon cancer, and from the information I was given he was on Kemo up until last week. He did his best to combat what he had.
Mike was in his mid 60's when he passed on so he still went before his time. He was just newly retired as of last summer. I still remember attending his big retirement party.
Mike and I worked together for four years at Prodomax (the company i was with before I was laid off). He would keep my grounded on times where I was slightly stressed, he was a great man.
He left behind his wife of many years and two very great daughters and grand kids on one side.
What gets me to this point is that back in October I was told that he wasn't doing well and that I should attempt to contact him, but due to allot of many factos time wasn't on my side for this.
I was planning on calling him this week coming or his family none the less to wish them a good safe holidays.
As I told Jennifer tonight I'm partially glad I did not see him in the state he has been in the past month as the Jondice has turned his skin very yellow and with the Kemo he was not the same man. So as it stands in my mind the image I have is a very strapping powerful man in my mind. Hes always been a treat to this world.
After getting the word at work today i was quite upset from 5 on, and wasn't able to do anything about this.
I polished off 3/4 of a bottle of wine to myself tonight and I know it won't make the situation better but you know what after the full week I had it was a nice treat.
All I ask from you out there is some extra energies I'm tired, I feel lost, I feel confused.
I know his energies and his next path will be a great one but right now I'm not a happy person. I'm upset to the most extrem.
I am looking forward to tomorrow to be with friends and having a good time (please weather stay good for us *nudges green man*)
I thought of something tonight....... we work to live and live to work, it is a vicious cycle.
