My mom got an email from our cousin in Australia that my grandmother's brother has metastatic cancer in his stomach. And they won't be pursuing treatment, just pain management. Our family isn't very big, and it's about to get smaller. So grandma's brother will likely pass soon, his daughter (who emailed my mom) was just diagnosed with breast cancer, and his son has advanced Parkinson's.

My grandmother obviously doesn't see him often, as she hasn't been there since 1995 and she's not technically saavy to use Skype. But we're hoping to get them connected with Skype so that they can see each other before he passes.

Sorry that I am rambling. Thanks for listening.

That is so sad. I really hope Skyping works out. You'll all be in my thoughts and prayers.
