I just found out from my Dad that we’ve had the third death in the family in the past year. I’ve lost my great-grandpa and two great-uncles, and I haven’t been there for any of it.

    I know, I’m afraid to answer the phone anymore. You’re here in spirit.

  7. At least this time Dad’s figured out to e-mail me the actual details instead of just saying “Call me right away.” Because when he does that, I freak out and imagine car wrecks and tornados and ebola and all kinds of bad stuff.

  8. my heart goes out to you and your family, Kris.
