On Thursday, December 9, 2010 my family suffered a loss. My aunt loss her husband to cancer. They were such a close couple. My aunt and uncle had such a great relationship. They were like bossum buddies. Wherever you saw on, you saw the other. I hope the man I marry and I will have a relationship like that. I only know of one other couple who has a relationship like that, my bestfriend's since childhood parents.
It has hit me in a way I didn't think it would. I guess it was when I last saw him two weeks ago, lying in bed. He looked so frail. I had just been there two weeks prior and he had came downstaris to the kitchen where my aunt, my mom and I were, frying chicken and just chit-chatting. He looked good. But seeing him in bed,thoughts of my dad immediately came to mind (I loss my dad to cancer in 1995). The scenerios were almost exact.
My aunt for the most part is holding up quite well. It also helps that she has her sons and other family members and friends by her side for support.
Rest in Peace Uncle Jones. You will truly be missed.
