My mom just came home for lunch and told me that one of my uncles is in the hospital -- he had a massive heart attack yesterday and is supposed to have a triple bypass, and he may not pull through.
This sucks on many levels. I know I'm going to have to lose my aunts and uncles eventually, but there's only four of them, and it hurts me that I'll have to lose what little extended family I have. Plus there's a selfish part of me that was hoping that they'd all hang on at least long enough for my wedding, whenever that might be.
Fingers crossed, guys... I really hope he's okay and that the rest of them stay healthy, too (my other uncle, especially, looked awful the last time I saw him).
