Thursday Thirteen, #44

Thirteen Things
about
Mon-Mon’s
Brother

1. He preferred being bald.

2. He had a terrific, if somewhat odd, sense of humor.

3. He only recently got sick – prior to this past year (and his previous bout with leukemia) he was quite healthy.

4. He loved to cook.

5. He loved his wife – a lot.

6. He loved his family too – though we were all estranged.

7. He did some really bad things for a really long time – and regretted it.

8. He didn’t really change as a person – rather he gave up selfish and destructive behaviors that affected who he was to himself and everyone around him.

9. It took him many, many years to realize what he needed to do – what was the right thing to do.

10. He didn’t want to die, and yet he was tired of the pain.

11. He took over 15 medications daily in the end.

12. Snowball lived – through him – because of him, she will never be forgotten.

13. Because of him, I found a little part of myself I didn’t know I was missing.
