I keep forgetting I have one of these things. I'll make a note to keep updating it.

Anyway, I'll start with some good news. I don't remember when, but I met someone about - I'm not sure - six months ago and we started talking. He told me that he loves me and would often but I assumed that it was like a friend would tell another I love you. I was wrong.. He actually meant it. He really does love me. And, February 6th, I realized that I have strong feelings for him too. The only thing is that there are too many factors for us to start dating: long distance, age difference, etc... but we're not giving up. We're taking things really slowly and once I'm legally an adult - if the feelings are still there - we're going to give us a try.

Now, the bad news....

Saturday my uncle was suffering from stomach pains. He was concerned so he went to the hospital. Once he got there and finished talking to the receptionist, he collapsed... He was rushed to the intensive care unit and under went numerous surgeries then was hooked up to a life support system.
Finally, Monday morning, mom woke me up and told me what was going on. She told me how he was in the hospital and how, at around five that morning, they pulled the plug. I was devastated, but I didn't lose hope. I still prayed that he'd - as if by magic - regain strength and return to his family. At a little after 8, Brett and I were getting ready to head off to school and mom came downstairs and hugged me. I knew he was gone....

I still want to believe that this is all just a bad dream and that, when I wake up, I'll see that nothing's changed. I'll still be with an amazing man, Alex and I will be happy as ever, all talk of a funeral will be but a figment of my subconciouse mind, that he'll wake up next to his wife and his children will never know that kind of pain. But just because I want to believe it, that doesn't mean it'll happen... He's gone and no amount of Falderal and Fiddledeedee can bring him back....
