You know I have a hard time saying what I would do or how I would act as a grand child. I can not remember ever having the chance to meet my grandfather on my fathers side I dont think I was even told when he died. Now on my mothers side I can remember meeting my grandfather a couple of times being he lived in Germany I think he tried his best to meet us and get to know us. I can remember when he was around I would not want to let him go or leave his side. One time we went to see the Statue of Liberty and all of my family went inside they wanted to go to the top but my grandfather for some reason did not want to go so I stood by his side. I think if I found out he was sick and it might be the last chance I would be able to I would stop everything and go see him. Same as I did with my father even though we had one of those love hate relationships and fought over what ever stupid thing we could fight about when we were together. I have a real hard time understanding why someone would not make every effort to see a sick relative. Now I am not talking about a common cold or a broken are I am talking more serious things the love of family can cure many things why would you not want to be a part of that. How would it make you feel if that person did not make it and you had your chance to say good buy and I love you and you traded it for the everyday hustle of life. I am so thankful we got to visit Gary W Polmanteer and I even got to go back and spend some one on one time with him. I would have to say he is a warrior in his battle and am very thankful he is winning his battle for now. I wish I could take some of his pain on for him or help him but for now I will pray that he makes it thru this and many more battles to come.
