Medical Updates + Short Entry
Its been a few days since I have updated last. I stated up a class earlier this week, going to go through training to a point where I have to get up at 7AM and stay til 4:30PM doing assignments. Then at night I have to read four or five chapers a night. Some are short and some are excrutiatingly long.

It has been so depressing lately, I dont know if its because of the events that have suddenly jumped my bones that are now taking a toll on me.. but... I dont know. Today, I found out that Brett's arm would be alright, he'll probably just have to have some therapy for his arm and has to go back in two weeks. As for Tony....

Tonight, Tony died around 7:30 PM. I.. really don't know what to make of it, I have never been close to Tony but... My brother, on the other hand, Billy... he and Tony were close and so seeing him in a emotional state of tears.. as have I recently... I couldn't help but break down when he did. I'm so sorry, I mean, We are only human but.. I was listening to the story about Tony, so I am going to tell it to you whether you want to hear it or not, I feel its important for me to vent rather than balling it up and holding it inside like I have been.

The other day around the 16th, Tony [age 37] and his friend Gerami Kramzer [age 27] were driving down to Humptulips on Highway 101. Tony was the driver and Gerami was the passanger. Well I'm not exactly sure what Tony was doing, but he crossed the center line and hit a LeMays Flatbed truck in a head on collision, killing Kramzer instantly and was opposed dead at the scene. The volvo that he was driving was demolished. Nothing was left to it; So Tony hanging on by threads was taken by paramedics to the Grays Harbor Community Hospital and was instantly rushed into the ER.

Then about 15 minutes there, they loaded him up in helicopter and air lifted him to Harberview in Seattle, Washington. His injuries were severe. His panchrius was split in half, his stab wound was forcedly reopened, his pelvic bones were crushed, his left lung collapsed and his kidneys and liver were failing. They placed him on life support and was in a coma. Then around 7:30 tonight, he passed away and my family is devistated. His twin brother Monty feels terrible and couldn't help but blame his twin's dead upon himself... Whereas, Aunt Lavonda [aka Aunt Betty] and Uncle Joe feel responsible. She and Uncle Joe put restraining orders on both Monty and Tony to get them out of the house; Tony was.. trying to turn his life around.

He had a steady girlfriend, a good job and a little boy named Geiber - Age 5. Last month, Tony was at a bar and got stabbed in the abdomen because he owed this guy drug money. Then suddenly his girlfriend left him, and I guess he got back on drugs.. and this is what it lead up too.

Please people, heed my word... Don't do drugs unless its medically prescribed.. If you want to go somewhere, get a taxi, ask a family member or a friend... but don't drive under the influence of toxins of any sort.. I could sit back and close my eyes sometimes when I watch movies, saying "Oh no.. that wont happen to any of my family members." But.. the unexpected always happen and we all learn from others mistakes.

Im sorry is all I can say. A life is something that can never be retreived once it leaves. But he is better now. Take care.

I had no idea what was going on in your life again. I guess, since we don't talk like we used to, I won't really know unless I ask. I haven't had the chance recently, but I guess I'll just keep up with your journal for now...If you do ever want to talk to me, you know how to get a hold of me. I'm here for you, even if not physically.

I very sorry about your cousin...though I'm sure you've heard that enough by now.

I know I've said this before...quite a few times, but I hope things will get better. Soon.
