On Saturday Oct. 10 we found out my aunt (mom's sister) had a massive heart attack and there was nothing the hospital could do for her. They tried a catheterization on one artery but couldn't do any other procedure. She was fully blocked in 2 other arteries. Turns out she had heart disease but didn't know it. Horrible part is she had just had a physical the Thursday before her heart attack. The doctor said there wasn't anything wrong with her when she had a physical on Thursday!
She passed away Sunday October 11. 71 years old.
We are completely devistated by this. My mom talked with her on the phone all the time. She was actually the last one to speak with my aunt on Friday night. We were very VERY close to her. The whole family feels empty. My aunt was the core of the family. Now that core is gone. We all feel so lost without her.
Flew out to Pittsburgh for the funeral with mom and dad. It was one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. My mom had a rough time with it. I feel so awful and sick over it. Viewing was that Tuesday October 13....and just so happened to be my aunt's birthday. How horrible is that? We had the funeral the next day October 14 as the funeral director said she was actually already deteriorating due to liquid coming out of her ??? It didn't even look like her. It's still so hard to believe she's gone. After going all the way there, the viewing, the burial, I still can't believe she is gone.
We spent that week with the family and then came home. Then I got sick. Very sick. I'm still sick. Sinus AND ear infection. I missed over a week of work being sick. Missed a week of work for the funeral.
I am so thankful October 2009 is going to be over. I'm sure over it. As I said........WORST MONTH EVER. I miss my aunt......
