Wasn’t sure if I wanted to post this at all but I’m in a talkative mood, (very rare for me, I usually bottle it up).
I know we are all strangers and know little to nothing about each other but please, make peace with your soul and tell your loved ones just how much you love them. Today.
Tuesday May 2nd my 43 year old son lost his battle with cancer after a 14 month fight. He had Acute Myeloid Leukemia, the worst kind you can get. He leaves behind a wife, a 6 year old and a 3 year old. He will be missed terribly by everyone that ever knew him.
And as if that wasn’t enough, we had his service on Saturday, in the middle of the night afterwards, I had to be rushed to the ER and have my gall bladder removed. So here I am, fresh from his service, less than a week after his passing, and all my family has to see me laying there in a hospital bed hooked up to all the monitors just like my son did for the past year. Sigh.
You know the saying that “tomorrow is not a promise, it’s a gift”. It’s not a cliché it’s a truth, probably the only real truth there is.
So don’t wait, do it today and everyday.
