Just so ya all know, the cousin / fireman I have told several stories about died two weeks ago. Brain bleed, stroke, heart attack something. He joined the Coast Guard right out of high school and after six years of that became a fireman. Spent most of his life takig care of others. He had terrible sleep Apnea and refused to wear a cpap mask. He and his wife slept in separate bedrooms. Six weeks or so ago she fell and broke a let. Every night before he went to bed he would "tuck her in" and then go to bed himself. Last thing he did before passing on was to take care of someone else.

...Last week a nephew of mine had a stroke in his sleep and is totally paralyzed on one side. He was the son of an airforce pilot who flew phantoms in Vietnam. During his mothers pregnancy she caught measles which can cause birth defects. Kid was a deaf mute. No hearing, no talking, No one much to take care of him. He is alive, but that is about all. His father was shot down over Nam and his body never recovered.

...it's always something ain't it?
