On Thursday, October 7th, at about 10:45pm, my grandfather on my mom's side passed away after struggling with Parkinsens for two years or so and fighting an infection for three weeks.
The funeral is today, October 11th with visitation here in my city of Oshkosh.
It hit me hard on the morning that I got the phone call and now today, while I'm getting ready to attend his funeral at 4. I know that he was suffering the last 15 months of his life, but I keep remembering who he was before he got really sick and couldn't walk anymore. Only 4 years ago, when I graduated from high school, he was able to walk and stand for my graduation. I can't believe that in those four years, he declined so quickly.
I'd better get off and get changed. Only an hour and a half before I have to be there.
