This Past Week

Does it every seem like nothing goes right and that everything happens all at once? That is how my past week was. First of all I got Bronchittis and was not feeling well at all last week. So Wednesday I was relaxed and thought that I would have Thursday to rest and get better. Needless to say that never happened. I got a phone call around 7 pm from my sister saying that our step father had a heart attack and that he was being admitted into Potsdam Hospital and shipped out to Syracuse either Thursday or Friday. So I went up to Potsdam later that evening to see him and my mom to see how they were. Then Thursday afternoon he was shipped via ambulance down to Syracuse. My sister, the three kids, and I drove down to be there for support and to make sure that he was ok. Friday afternoon he seemed to be doing better so he got to come home with several prescriptions. However, Friday morning before 9am I received a phone call from Robbie's grandmother saying that her brother just passed away. We knew it was coming but it is still hard to know that it actually happened. He had been battling cancer since a few days before Easter this past year. So that is how my week has been.
