Yesterday my grandfather lost his more than two-year battle against cancer. I knew he'd been going downhill dramatically when I'd talked to my mother a few days prior. Mel & I were out when the message came in. In a shaky voice, all my mom said was "You need to call me as soon as you get this." When I heard that, I knew he was gone.
The arrangements are still being made, and I don't know which day the funeral's going to be on. Regardless I have never been so grateful that I've got 2 staffers who can easily cover my shift(s) at a moment's notice.
