Update

Just got a call from my mom.  Looks like my grandmother has taken another bad turn.  She has very shallow breathing.  My dad says it may be tonight or tomorrow.  I am still heading out of town for my work meetings.  I can always drive back.  I just need to keep busy or else the little things will get to me.

The kid isn't going to be too happy, but he certainly understands.  The family wants him to be a pallbearer since he is the only great-grandson.  I am a little leery about it, considering this is the very first funeral he has attended.  Not to mention, it's falling on his birthday.

Anyway, just wanted to update in case I am MIA for the rest of the week.
