The Process. Part I. Bummed.

There's no other way to describe it...bummed...it's taking him. I was scared today. Scared that I wouldn't know what to do if he really needed me. He's so fragile. He's on the verge...and I'm so heartbroken. I know I need to take this opportunity to tell him all the things I feel, but I think that would take another lifetime. He and I are kindred spirits. I am proud to call him my grandfather and my friend. Losing him is losing a part of myself...a part of my heart...a piece of my soul. I will miss him dreadfully. He hasn't left me yet, but it is really difficult seeing him like this. He wears his bald head well...but it breaks my heart that I can't do anything. I'm helpless...sitting idle by his side, watching, waiting, fearing, screaming, holding on so fucking tight...to do nothing...but love him. And that's all I can do. Forever.

It's breaking my heart just to read these words. I'm so so so sorry for the heaviness in your heart now. Say whatever you have to get off your chest now. He already knows the words, maybe you just need to hear yourself saying it to him.

I wish I could hug you in person.
