Family
Yesterday I left Bullhead City and drove 9 hours to Tooele to see my family. I haven't seen them since early in the Spring. My little brother has known I am coming out for about two weeks now, but kept the secret and didn't tell my parents. They were surprised and thrilled to say the least. I was hoping I would be able to get some time to visit them so when this week opened up, I took the opportunity. I love my family. I found out after I got here that my great-grandma, (who also lives in Tooele), had a minor heart attack on Thursday. She is in her mid 90's so this is pretty serious. She is still in the hospital as I am writing this on Monday morning. I am just glad I get to see her again. This will probably be the last time. Before I went to college I would see her almost on a weekly basis, at times I would grudge the thought of having to visit, now I wish I could go back and enjoy every moment. I guess being away at college has made me appreciate and love my family even more. If only I could have learned that when I was a teen.
