When its someone special, its harder to forget. My cousin died 2 years ago. He was only 19 and every time I see his picture or hear someone talk about him I swear I can picture his smile and hear him laugh in my head.

I remember the time last Summer that we spent watching the sun set over the Pacific while standing above Route 1 at Palisades Park in Santa Monica. He whacked me in the back of my knee and made me fall in the grass, then he fell next to me and we wrestled each other. I beat him up, of course, and then we just sat there, stared at each other, and talked about how perfect things were. He would say something lame, I would laugh my head off (literally), and then we eventually ended up just embracing each other while we watched the ferris wheel at Pacific Park go around and around, and the sun hide just beyond Malibu.

It's always the small things I remember and cherish the most. I won't ever forget that day, or the expressions on his face and in his voice. It's been a year, and I still recall it like it was last week. I miss that kid. [/being such a sap]

if i really cared about someone/something i cant forget about any detail at all. ive dated people i didnt care about and i dont remember many of the times we had or talks or anything, but if something important to me goes down- a great vacation with friends- i wont forget a single detail.

it usually takes a year or two after something is gone for me to fully reflect on it rationally and realize what i have missed.

I had to deal with the most horrible situation ever a few weeks ago. I sat on the phone and listened to a lady die. It was horrible. I cried for the whole day after it happened. A few years ago, My grandma passed away while I was holding her hand. The way the lady died on the phone w/ me, was the same way my grandma did. The breathing noises was the same and it took me back to one of the hardest days of my life.

well, be happy in the thought of knowing she didnt die alone :dunno

 

[slo6banger]

^ Exactly. V, maybe you made her feel at ease when she passed, I'm sure she was so scared.

I know it makes you sad, but you should be happy and proud that you helped her get through that painful time.

 

[sp3nis]

i was also at bedside, at the time he left. I spent alot of the 3 years visit. and now hosiptals are not the same, i dunno if its scary to me or what just creep me out. same with funerals, no more for me.

 

[Veronica]

Sorry spenis. I know how you feel. We have to keep strong for those that have passed because that is what they would want us to do.
