Wow.
Current Mood: Numb
Current Song: None


I'm sorry that I haven't posted in over a week, it's just that since Mom is unemployeed, she's home all the time and I used to get on the computer when she wasn't home. I can't be on the computer for a long time because she hates me spending my time on here.

Anyhow, I got a major slap in the face today. After my bass lesson and eating lunch, my family came home and watched T.V. Eventually my Aunt Carol called. Everything seemed like normal until my mom gasped really loud and started crying. We paused the movie we were watching and sat in front of my mom for about 20 minutes wondering what was going on. My mind kept on racing through scenarios, thinking that someone had died. My eyes started to tear, my hands started to shake, and I bit my nails until there was nothing left because I knew it would be terrible news. Eventually, I was able to piece up what was going on.

My Aunt Carol has breast cancer.

My mom was sobbing through most of the conversation, and whenever she got off the phone, I hugged her and held her hand. I think it finally hit me and I wondered what it would be like if Logan (my brother) had cancer. It's weird because my aunt lives so far away (she's in Minnesota, we're in North Carolina), but she's still family. I feel so bad for her kids and husband. The good news is that the doctors caught it before it grew into a lump and got really bad. This means she has a far greater chance of beating it than most women do. So, I'm praying that she can.

I think what scared me so bad is my mom crying. I don't think I've ever seen her cry that hard, even whenever I was cutting. Also, Aunt Carol said she's okay if she dies, because she knows she's going to Heaven.

I feel so numb. I ocassionally cry, but not as much as I thought. I don't know. I don't really feel like talking about it anymore, but I felt like I needed to tell someone and give you guys an explanation to why I hadn't been on in so long. Bye.
