More death
A great-uncle just died, and so I have another funeral to go to this week.
I don't know if I said it before, but my family was very lucky in that very few people died young. The down side of that is that this is the fifth family death in two years, because the old generation are all in their eighties. At least one great-aunt has cancer and is not doing well, and my remaining grandmother has alzheimers and congestive heart failure.
Everyone involved in my family needs to fear because I am the oldest grandchild on one side and the second oldest on the other. I feel great responsibility in that.
