I got some bad news this evening. My cousin told me that my Grandad, who lives in the United Kingdom, is dying of throat cancer. He’s been really weak for a few years now, and apparently some recent tests have shown that he has the beginnings of throat cancer. :(

He’s too weak to do Radiotherapy. They’re going to place a tube in his throat so at least he’ll get the summer but … Chances are he won’t live to the end of the year.

The hardest part is that all his family, his children and grandchildren, live in Australia. It will cost an arm and a leg to visit him before he dies, and then we’ll be spending a lot of money on getting to the funeral too.

Don’t get me wrong, we’ve been expecting it for a while, but still, it is a shock to the system… :(
