Jeannie

Okay, I found another photo that I felt that I needed to post.

This is my nephew Josh and my sister Jeannie.



I'm not sure exactly when this was taken, but I think it was taken within the last year. Jeannie has been gone for three months and Josh has been gone for two weeks. I love this picture so, so much. I think they both look so happy ...

I decided to post a few pictures of my family. I will include some in the comments, as well.


This is a photo of my oldest siblings. L-R from the top: My sister Brenda, my sister Jan (who is going through cancer treatments right now), my sister Rhonda (who is a breast cancer survivor), my brother Kenny, and my late sister Jeannie. I know that if you've read any of my past blogs, you've heard something about her. I think this was taken about a month before she died.

I was just re-reading some of my past blog entries and happened to see the date that I posted that blog. It was only a little over a month before my sister passed away.

It's still such a hard thing to get over. I know I'm not going to be over her death, but I sometimes feel like I've forgotten that she's no longer here. Like, I'll ...

While I was in Wisconsin.

She passed away early Sunday morning and I didn't get to say goodbye. Fuck, I hadn't even seen her since Valentine's Day.

I got the call at 6:30 Sunday morning and my mom told me that she died. I did alright. I mean, I cried, of course but it wasn't too bad. I had a couple more breakdowns that day.

I basically burst into tears when I walked in the door though. Her memorial is tomorrow. She was cremated so there isn't going ...

My sister is doing very well.

She hasn't really been eating and when she does she's been throwing most of it up.

She's had a lot of visitors so we don't know if someone brought a bug with them or not, but there's a good chance it's the cancer.

I'm supposed to be going to Wisconsin with my best friend on Friday for six days and I'm really scared something is going to happen to her. I hope nothing does.

Hospice has been coming three to four ...
