    After tomorrow morning I will not be here for a long time.

    Like anyone cares, but I wont be here for a long time (not sure when I will be back). My Uncle is dieing (only 56 years old) of cancer. He wanted to see me before he dies. Last time I seen him was when I was 4 years old. I could be gone for couple of weeks to over a month or more.

    I will be on before tonight is over to say my good byes to all. Well time to pack hope all WHT stay safe and have fun!

    my condolences too Jon.

    Saying goodbye is never easy, especially under those circumstances. Reminisce instead. Your uncle has a lot of catching up to do with you.. enjoy the time you spend with him. He has a lot to tell you or he wouldnt have asked for you to come.

    Just remember, its only his body thats dying. His soul will live on and be in a much better place.

    Cancer can pop up when you least expect it. It happened to someone i know. Everything was going great then his partner developed cancer and sadly passed away.

    Do you know how lucky you are?

    My grandpa, he died suddenly.
    He was sick all his life, been to the hospital a lot...

    But he seem'd so much better.
    We were very close, he was like my best friend.

    The last time I saw him was when I visited him on his birthday.

    I was the last to close the door, and saw him standing there.

    The next day he collapsed and was rushed to the hospital.

    My parents choose not to tell me anything, they hoped for the best.

    He was there a week and died.
    When my parents came home that day from the hospital they told me.

    I NEVER had a chance to say good-by

    It really hurt...


    Your lucky.
    my condolences jon.

    Bye Jon. Do not think people in this community does not care. Everyone in this community cares about everyone despite what they say. If you died today everyone in this community would mourn. I hope your uncle doesn't suffer. My grandpa suffered a painful death due to all the cigarettes he smoked.
