Well i got a call this morning at about 8:30 and i was told my uncle (for those of you who met my cousin Melissa, her dad) passed away last night in his sleep. it was very sudden and unexpected and my family is very shook up. dave came from work to take me to nans, because my family didnt want her to be told without someone there. needless to say when she got the call she was devastated and crying very hard. Its so weird, death. my aunt told my nan that they had such a good day yesterday--her and Gil. they went to dinner, saw a movie, had a really good night. went to sleep. boom. gone. they were soulmates. married like 30 years or something. went out together as often as they could. she said she heard him catch his breath, or snore really weird at around 4 in the morning, and she told him to turn over on his side. so he did... but he kept doing it.. a bit later she decided to turn on the light and his eyes were open and she said she knew he was gone.

Shes telling everyone to cherish the time you have with your loved ones. to make sure you say every day the things you think about saying. to take advantage of the love while you have it. because we can go at any time. i like that song If Tomorrow Never Comes. thats what this reminds me of.

Anyway sorry for the depressing update, Im ok--i dont get emotional about death, i just feel really bad for aunt diane and melissa and jason (my other cousin). he seemed so strong and healthy no one expected this.

Ok thats it. take care you guys and say i love you to your loved ones

Im going to put the song up too.
Sometimes late at night
I lie awake and watch her sleeping
She's lost in peaceful dreams
So I turn out the lights and lay there in the dark
And the thought crosses my mind
If I never wake up in the morning
Would she ever doubt the way I feel
About her in my heart

If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes

'Cause I've lost loved ones in my life
Who never knew how much I loved them
Now I live with the regret
That my true feelings for them never were revealed
So I made a promise to myself
To say each day how much she means to me
And avoid that circumstance
Where there's no second chance to tell her how I feel

If tomorrow never comes
Will she know how much I loved her
Did I try in every way to show her every day
That she's my only one
And if my time on earth were through
And she must face the world without me
Is the love I gave her in the past
Gonna be enough to last
If tomorrow never comes

So tell that someone that you love
Just what you're thinking of
If tomorrow never comes.

ok thats all.
