I received a message from my cousin that my uncle is in the hospital. He's far away from me and I felt like I wanted to jump on a plane and go see him right away. Tears filled my eyes as I called Geoff to tell him the awful news. In the condition I'm in right now with my surgery, it's obvious I can't, but the feelings are there. My uncle is someone who has been through many many struggles and I never stop loving him, no matter what happens. He is strong and has so much compassion for those who care for him. Although we have not been close in cities or towns, we have always been close at heart. I say a prayer for my Uncle Robert, my Godfather, so that he can be strong to heal and for Aunt Pauline, Lorie, Loretta and Lisa, so they may stay as strong for Uncle Robert as he has been for everyone else.
I miss you Uncle Robert and love you very much. Get better, it's your birthday tomorrow!
