theres an 80% chance that by saturday afternoon, i'll be back on a plane to NY, this time dressed in black, to put it delicately.
for those of you who dont know all the details of whats been happening here it is:
my grandma has been fighting lung cancer for 2 years.
last year she lived with us, because chemo is better out here, than in NY.
she also happens to be my faveorite adult in the entire world.
we're exactly alike, except she's 70 years older.
if i really sat down and thought about it, i probably love her more than anyone in the world.
this is really hard for me. dealing with stuff for extended amounts of time has never been my strong point.
i do really well in emergencys. like when my grandma was hope alone with me last year, and she stopped breathing. i knew i had no time to think, but now that i do have time to think, i think about it all the time. i dwell on every detail.
people at skool probably think i'm on drugs because my eyes have been so red for the last week. o well.
and people reading this will think i'm insane.
and i might be. who knows.
what i'm saying is that, i actually dont know what i'm saying.

Hey Julie,
I didn't go to school today my mom tried to make me go but it was weird. She wasn't in any pain and slept for the last day and a half and only wanted ice cream. She loved you more than you could ever know. All she talked about was how gorgous you are, how smart you are. She was more proud of you that you could ever conceive how much she loves you, love like that never dies. I love you ever if you smell a little your parents and family love you. Shannon can't believe how grown up you are and pretty you are and neither could grandma. Remember the good times and not the realy bad ones. You are such a cool person and I like you and you like you and frankly thats the only one that counts. She wouldn't want you to be sad, she would want you to be happy and drink coffee and watch THE GOLDEN GIRLS on Lifetime and she would want you to go to carvel and have vanilla ice cream with sprinkes
I see you later soon and we can go get Carvel with sprinkles and drink coffe and watch the golden girls.
My love and prayers,
Stephie
Shannon says HI and Rubie sends you KISSES
stephie, i love you too.
we (me, laura, kim, and my dad) are flying out either late friday night, or early saturday morning.
i know you probably feel like i do now, so i'll wait until we get there to give you a hug (not those crap virtual hugs).
see you soon.
