As I argued with my mom on staying one more night. After letting go of any hope my father would recover from his cancer. Just knowing he would pass on that night arguing but getting no where fast. I finally just began walking through the halls of the nursing home knowing this would be the last time I would see my father asleep and here. I pass the nurses station heading out to the car not even glancing back to see if my mom has followed. I step into the light of the day look around for the Pontiac grand Prix and spot among the parked vehicles. I open up the passenger side door get in and wait. A few moments later my mom drops in and we drive off from the nursing home for the last time I look back with longing and sadness. We drive back home and finish packing up whats left of this life and head out.

We arrive late in the night to the new house to tired to unpack the car we just go in and fall asleep.
I dream of my father that night as he passed away on to the eternal sleep. I've lost everything I said in that moment my life my friends my sister and father all for what. A new town with aunts and uncles I don't even know. I awake to my mom on the phone bitching out a person saying 'how dare you try to solicited my husband when he hasn't even past' next I know is she crying her eyes out and from that I just knew he had passed on
