Sometimes it takes the dying to teach us how to live

In loving memory...

On April 10, 2008 I received two phone calls early in the morning at work. When my boyfriend called asking if my dad had gotten a hold of me I knew that my uncle had died. My dad phoned a few minutes later. My unlcle had been fighting sarcoma (soft tissue cancer) and at this point we knew our time with him was limited. I had been able to see my uncle the week before and appreciated the chance to share the following poem I had written for him:

So, now a year later, I remember the times with him and I want to honour him in aiming to be the type of person he was. He was a kind and gentle soul who had a way of making you feel special regardless of what else was going on. He also had a great sense of humour and was always smiling.

Here's to you, Ralph.

May you live forever in the hearts

of those whose lives you touched.

I love you.

It makes me easier to take

This is me.
Broken for you
into 100 swallow-able pieces.

I am easier to digest that way.
