Unexpected News

This morning around 7:30, Cayce and I woke up to a text message from his aunt, saying that his grandfather has stage 4 brain cancer and that he will be in the hospital for the next 4 months. It hit Cayce so hard and I haven't seen him cry in months. He also learned that his aunt has stage 4 cancer in her kidney, small intestines, lungs, and it's in her bloodstream. It brought back so many memories for me because when I was 14, I lost my grandpa to lung cancer a few months after they found it. It's also really hard to deal with because my great grandmother is have heart problems and my great aunt had a stint put in the other day because she had a 99% blockage.

It changed our whole day. Cayce went and spent some time with his aunt and grandpa and I stayed home with the girls because they wouldnt understand what their great grandpa is going through at the hospital.

I wish that the girls got to spend some more time with him, and wish that they met my grandpa.

But on a better note today, we got the front yard cleared. Most of the roots and trees have been knocked down and we got a bigger hole dug in the backyard, so we can start burning the debris.

I'm hoping for a better day tomorrow, and that we don't get anymore bad news.
