Its Been a Rough Few Weeks
So the last four weeks have been a lot of emotional ups and downs for me. Between April 20th and May 20th, My family and I have experienced amazing highs and lows. It started with finding out that my wife's oldest sister was pregnant with her first child. The day she was going to tell her parents that they were going to be grandparents, their mom (my mother-in-law) suffered a stroke and was taken to the ER. Her recovery and rehab since has been coming along very well, so we are very thankful for that. The same weekend as mom-in-law's stroke, my cousin-in-law's mom was brought to the hospital for a heart problem, but turned out it was a hernia or something. On May 1st, I found out that my cousin's wife gave birth to a beautiful baby girl, their first. On May 5th, my wife and I celebrated our first anniversary as a married couple. Unfortunately I had to take finals that evening. At the end of the week, I finally got my hands on a Nintendo Wii. Upon coming home from the store, I learned from my mom, that my other father-in-law (brother's wife's dad) had passed away after a long fight with cancer which had spread to his bones. A few hours later, my wife gets a call from her good friend, that her father had a heart attack and passed away and we quickly went to her aid to console her. I went home to SoCal for a week to attend my father-in-law's funeral and to see family and friends. I returned to Arizona to find that my mother-in-law had made great progress in her post-stroke rehab. Then just about an hour ago, we got a call that my wife's uncle had passed away.
