So in my last post I mentioned how my only sister was dying from breast cancer. She passed away a few days later on March 4th. She will be missed by all especially her Mother, Brothers, Husband of 15 years, and 3 children.
Things have been hard. She was my best friend. Out of our entire family, my father and my sister were closest to me. They knew better than anyone and understand all my many quirks. So needless to say I am having a tough time. There is a quote that says "the worst...

I just had to tell someone and I figured it should be the two people who I knew would be okay with it. I am working my way up to tell other friends and family but for right now, that's enough.
Now for the hardest part. On May 6th, my father lost his epic battle with pancreatic cancer. My mom, sister and I were by his bedside at home....

Hey all,
This is the first blog I have ever done so I will use this opportunity to tell you all about myself.
