I went and saw one of my best friends on monday. I've known her for about 34 years.
Wednesday the 27th was her birthday, so i went a couple days early to see her and bring her flowers. She's sick. She drank too much Seagram's 7 over the past 20 years and her fucking liver doesn't work now. Her kidney's have shut down. She's on dialysis 3 times a week, for 3 hours each time. She told me that the dialysis is basically keeping her alive until she gets a new liver. She won't be put on the recipient list until she is alcohol free for 6 months. Thats this upcoming March.
I hope she gets one in time, and I hope it works well with her body and keeps her going for another 50 years. She just turned 40.
My Mom called me last night to tell me that my cousin Karen died yesterday. She's the mommy of an angel baby who died 15 years ago. His name is Michael. I have another cousin, Jessie, who died two years ago. She's also the mother of an angel baby named Kiersten who died of Sids about a year before her mother passed away. I have a sister who is the mommy of an angel too. Her baby "Stacey" died 1 year and 2 weeks before Dylan left. Does it ever end? Will ANYONE in our family get to grow old before they pass away? Anyone?????
