Rest In Peace

"God's finger touched him, and he slept."

If it's not one thing it's another, I swear that saying will probably follow me forever. Work is cool, they've been cutting hours but nothing to worry about. I don't blame them, because everyday that I worked last week was sloooow. It'll pick back up around Oct. though & more hours will come.

My uncle passed yesterday. This guy that I talk to called me yesterday at like 9am saying that they found him dead in his apt. It was so random, that I didn't believe him at first. I mean my uncle had a bunch of health issues, like being a diabetic and sleep apnea but his name and death in the same sentence just don't mix in my mind. My uncle and my great grandmother basically raised me, he was like the only and major father figure I had during my childhood. When I came back home in May, I made it a point to visit him faithfully and he made sure to put money away for me to have when I went back to ATL. He always told me that if I ever needed anything while I was down there to give him a call. He gave, even though he didn't have. He cared about others even though they may have thought negative about him. He had a sense of humor, a big heart. It's so crazy, and I don't think I'll ever be able to completely believe and accept the fact that he's gone. I feel like this entire situation could of been avoided. The night before he said he couldn't breath, and he sent his friend to get him medicine. His friend asked him if he wanted to call 911 and he said no. Then I asked how long he had been dead, and they said not long, because when they found him he was still ALIVE, but it was too late they couldn't save him, BULLSHIT!!! I can't sleep at night, every time I close my eyes I see him laying there, helpless and no longer.
