For the Alliance!

Mom called me today. I guess the MRI looked... really bad. Grandma has really, really bad brain damage from the accident... even if she were able to make it through, she would never be the same person again. I'm not even sure if she would be able to manage on her own like she used to... mom did not give me any explicit details about it, nor did I ask. But based on how mom was acting, I'm sure it was not something grandma ever would have wanted... Mom has made the decision to remove grandma's breathing tube, because grandma would not want to live that way at all... we all know that.

At the same time, it's really hard... knowing we are going to lose her soon. The doctors do not know how long it will be, really... from a few hours to a few days. She will continue to breath on her own as she has been all this time, when they take the tube out... we'll have just to play it by ear I guess.

The good news of today is I went to UMass earlier for an interview for a possibly summer job. 12 dollars an hour up to 40 hours a week. It looks like it will be great... doing a lot of stuff relevant to my major too. I'm just not in the mood to give any details. Maybe next time.
