I keep going back and forth between not wanting to have a “blog” and wanting to have one…
Nathan graduated from college this weekend!! I can hardly believe it because I still feel so stuck. It’s insane to think that if I had really been focused I could have been graduating too. I’m so proud of him…and jealous too. 
We spent almost the entire day with his family and then went out for drinks. It was one of the best days we’ve had in months and I couldn’t feel happier.
My dad is doing well. He’s still moving slow but he is missing half of his right lung afterall. We’re back at work full time and this Wednesday in exactly one month we will be leaving for a real week’s vacation!! It’s been about 5 years since my family has gone anywhere together.
Despite everything else, my Aunt has taken a turn for the worst. She has been sick for a long time, first with breast cancer which turned into colon cancer. Now she is in the hospital with severe blood clots that have moved into her pelvis. I don’t even know what to say about her. She shouldn’t have to go through this, she’s been through enough already.
This type of thing really has me questioning life. I don’t understand why people have to die the way they do. Having a family memeber die is bad enough but to watch them go slowly or rapidly downhill for 10 years is enough to crush faith in anything…but actually, she has been told several times that she wasn’t going to live and she did. She could very well make it through this, stranger things have happened to her.
