I won't forget today...

So maybe I'm overreacting, but I just received a call from my father about my grandpa. He's been off dialysis since Friday and now he's nearly comatose. He's in anti-anxiety pills and oral morphine to ease the pain, but I know time is short. It's still registering in my brain, but I know this is going to hit and hit hard. He's the only grandfather I've ever known. If he is leaving this world soon I can at least take some solace in a couple things:

1. I got to tell him I'm dedicating my next book to him.
2. I got to tell him I love him.
I'm going to lose my grandpa soon, but it doesn't really mean goodbye. Just, 'I'll see you later'. God, please make him comfortable when he gets up there. And don't let him get too crazy up there; we all know he likes to joke. I love you grandpa; I'll never forget you.
