The Night It All Began And How Far It Has Come.

The Night It Began.

It was a normal night just like any other night. I was ready for bed and with my mom and brother while she was reading us a book before we went to bed. The only different thing was the fact my dad wasn't home because he was working an extra shift for his job at the mall. I don't remember every little detail to this night as I didn't know what it meant at that point in time. My mom was reading us a book when my mom got a call from my dad... it wasn't good news. My grandpa was being rushed to the hospital, he was having a heart attack... he didn't make it. It was to late when the medics had arrived. At this point I didn't know what death was. At the age I was at I didn't know that my grandpa raced before I was born... before I was ever told my dad made a hard choice that would impact my life forever.
