I just found out today that my aunt, who has been battling brain cancer for some time, has been sent home with Hospice. 

I still have two regrets in my life, both were friends that were dying of cancer and I waited too long to say goodbye. Fear of what to say, what not to say.

This time I will not make that mistake. I will go, and talk, maybe cry, smile, maybe laugh. I will say goodbye.

Kalev and I will be flying to Little Rock to catch a ride with my little sis and drive to southeast KS together. 

It will be Kalev’s first flight. It will be my first flight since an elder relatives funeral, also in southeast KS almost 7 years ago.

I am fragmented now, uneasy, unsure, but determined.
