Coffee Nude
Someone who means the world to me, who means the word hero to me, for raising a family that ended up spawning me. My favorite person. Who has lived 92 long years, is now giving up on this world. I say, if you're itchy and uncomfortable, can't see, can't even have a gin martini when you want, that it's up to you Gramp. I caught his ear last night, by a stroke of luck. He's not really taking the phone anymore, so my Aunt put it up to his ear. I said, "Gramp, you don't have to talk. I just wanted to tell you a few things... I love you, I'll always honor your memory and talk about how great you are, you are my hero. I am sorry that you hurt, everything is going to be OK> I love you and our baby loves you, and by the way, looks just like you!" (got a chuckle outta that one) Thankfully I was able to tell him these things from afar. One thing I missed, was to remind him to find Grandma. So, I'm leaving this weekend, cancelling the boog's first birthday party & rushing to his side to remind him. Just as the rest of the family converges. I didn't really want it this way. Had it my way, I would be there holding him by myself. Petting his head and playing good music and reminding him that I'll see him next lifetime. Apparently, he's not eating, who knows how long he has. All he wants to do right now is drink coffee and be nude.
