I was just told by his wife. He's a bit upset right now, which I can understand. I didn't know her all that well, having only met her a handful of times over the years, but he feels a lot more of course, having grown up with her and all...

She was the oldest out of four, and kinda frail and sickly. She'll be cremated in France where she lived most of the time and then there'll be a memorial in Stockholm later on, though when all this will happen nobody knows. It only just happened after all. I wonder if I'm expected to attend or not. Guess I am, though I'm honestly not too keen on it. It's a long trip by car, and I don't like long car trips. Especially if we have to stay overnight somewhere at a strange place like my adoptive father's other older sister's house, which might be the case this time.

Oh well. Time will tell what happens.

My heartfelt condolences to you and your family.

Today, ironically, I will be with my family today too. My uncle died on Friday.

Perhaps they are both in a better place.

Much love to you and your family,

Kevin

I know your relationship with your adoptive parents is difficult, but it may be a reason to choose to come closer together with them. Thsi has ot be entirley your business and decision.

It means a so much to hear you say that (hugs in return), and thanks to you other guys too. All your words are much appreciated.

Thought he would call me, but he hasn't so far. Oh well... Now it's bedtime.

Girl, I'll try to get your email written to you tomorrow, I really will. Hope nothing conspires against me to mess with that goal. Luv ya, and thanks again...


Take care, everyone.
