My Uncle
My Uncle John passed away a couple months ago. He had been put in ICU with a case four of throat cancer, they had to cut a hole in his trachea to feed him. Before he died I heard a song on the radio that I wanted to sing for him, but I didn't know the name of the song or even the band's name. The song was so amazingly perfect for my Uncle and what I wanted him to think of me and what I wanted him to remember as he sat there in the hospital room. I listened everyday for that song, but it never came on again, and then he was gone. I wasn't able to attend his funeral, and I never heard that song again. Until just today, I got a new CD and amazingly enough one of the songs on it was the song I wanted to sing for my Uncle. It quite honestly brought tears to my eyes, I have it on repeat and I'm singing it to him, even though he's not with me, I know he can hear me. He hears me while he's playing golf in Heaven, and that's all that matters. Goodness I love my Uncle John.
