About 25 minutes a go to be pricise. I never know what to do with myself when there is a death in the family.

He's been crazy ill and I haven't seen him for years. But yeah, all of a sudden the atmosphere changes like I should do something else, when it really is better for me to stay out of the way. Weird how even when something expected happens, when the moment comes, it's all 'oh, ok, right, erm'.

He had a good life though, taught me how to fish which led me to become in part - veggie :D

Still, rock on Uncle Pete! (y)

Nah, not really, not for the past 10 years or so. My Dad has 10 brothers and 2 sister (catholic family) and my Uncle Jim was the first to die of them last year, now a lot are getting ill. My Dad is the 3rd to youngest of the lot. A lot of this is old age, so my dad has a good 20 years on the oldest which I hope he has. My Dad was really cut up last year with Jim because he was the first. Just weird.

Also, he'll drink shit loads tonight - and I cannot stand being around my parents drunk so I avoid them. But you know how you feel you have to be around them.

I'd be crazy upset if it was any of my immediate family and it makes me think about my Dad not being here. I don't mean to think it but it does. You can only ask him enough to stop drinking and smoking until I become annoying.

It's just weird, like I said.

Ha, cool. I'm glad he's gone. Blackout said something beyond what I would class as normal human emotions.

He was sick with cancer and a few other things. When your immune system is low, you catch everything and anything. In all truth I dunno where the cancer was. I think lungs but it was too advanced to do anything.

^it's all good, but thanks. I'm not after sympathy or anything - which I said in my 2nd post before I edited it. Just more commenting on how mood changes.

My dad seems more releived, I think because there is not that endless waiting, when its obvious it's gonna happen. It was a heart attack that ended his run. Although apparently he perked up just before and then started to slowly slip into his last breaths

But like I say, he had a good run, so no need to be too sad. Should be a celebration of life, rather than a mourning of one. Which is why I'm uncomfortable with sympathy. Thanks though, it is appreciated. I even mediated a little for him last night which I haven't done in YEARS!

And it brings the family closer together cus some of them have fallen out with each other over normal family stuff. So good comes of something that is sad. And it's party time for all the little worms!

Good enough reason to get fucking drunk, and cause worry to those close to you. Good luck. (y)

Hope it doesn't hit you too hard, dude. I had a similar thing happen with my father about 2 years ago and it really did just fuck up my life. So I hope you can turn the love and respect you had for your Uncle Pete into something happy and positive. (y)
