so today its my 19th birthday- HURRAY! but i spent all last night in the hospital to watch my grandfather on his death bed.
suprisingly, he made it through the night with a collapsed lung- the other filled with liquid, unable to swallow and in great pain.
so im spending my birthday waiting by the phone for the latest update and as morbid as it is- the last. guess it wont be such a happy birthday after all.
but- my g/dad still has his sense of humor, last night i was in the room with all my brothers and sisters (6 total) and all their families. we were all chatting away when there was a silence as we all realised our grandfather had fallen alsleep. he woke wide awake to say "shit, i thought i died with that silence", hahaha i was the only one that found that funny...
so what do i do? go to his death bed to watch him die and in pain or go out and celebrate my birthday where i burst out in tears everytime someone says "HAPPY BIRTHDAY!", surely there is another way to say that, that would be appropiate to my situation
Go see him.
Birthdays are not important.
But, happy birthday, anyway.
