Thumbing Through History



Have you ever taken a good look at some old photos? Well, I decided to tonight. I received some sad news. One of my mom's brothers evidentally took his life this past Thursday. He had cancer, unbeknownst to me. He went in for surgery at the beginning of the month and as a result of his pain medication, he became depressed. Even more unfortunate was his wife was a couple of rooms away and I can only imagine what she is going through. I don't know if my uncle was truly aware of himself or his circumstances that fateful night. I only know my family is deeply saddened by his loss. Seems I have had to face a lot of that the last year or so. My dad's parents left the earth last year. G'ma had cancer and her treatments left her vulnerable to infection. She contracted a lung infection. She lived two months longer than the doctors said she would. G'pa was depressed over losing his wife of more than 60 years. He took his life four months later. It was a hard hit for the family. PRAY and pray more is what I find myself doing. Anyhow, looking through the pictures, I found some fun pictures from my past. Some fun pics and some pics I would rather not exist. I thought I might share.
