death

Death never seems real until it hits you. My aunt Deb was a wonderful person. She had one child (my cousin) and her husband died when he was 45. She believes that things should be natural, you shouldn't need to take median or pain medication. So whenever I was sick and she was in from Colorado, she would make me tea, or give me some kind of scented candle, or massage my head to make me feel better. It was pretty cool how she just knew some things like that(she also knew how to yodel). Two years ago when there was an ecolie brake out in spinach she went to the doctors to get checked, that was when we found out she had stage 8 ovarian cancer. Its been a hard 2 years for her, with 6 near death experiences. I only go to see her maybe once a year or every two years, I didn't feel like we had a very strong connection, until i thought about not having her there for me. Tonight my mom came to my dads house to tell me that she past away this morning, I never knew what it felt like to loose a relative.
