I Was Forgotten

Keiko's Memorial Service was Saturday, Dec. 6, and nobody called me. They were all, my cousins and family friends and my brothers, there saying to each other, "Where's Webster?" Is she feeling all right? Didn't anybody call her?

Well, no. No one called me. And I am pretty upset about missing the service. My brother who lives here should have taken the initiative to call me, as we live in the same city - but he assumed my brother from Japan was going to do it. And he said he called, but got the machine, and was going to call back, and must have forgotten. He apologized, but it just pisses me off that I missed seeing the relatives who came from farther away, because they won't be at the ceremony at the cemetery which will happen Friday.

Sometimes I think my family doesn't call me because if they do, they might have to deal with my disability. Accommodations have to be considered - the walker, or the wheelchair. Oh hell, I don't know. Maybe it was just a simple oversight. I shouldn't make more of it than that.

Local brother and I will go together on Friday. I'll see if he will drive my car, or let me drive him, because all the "equipment" is in my back seat. It will be easier for me that way. He won't like it, but I'll talk him into it. Hopefully.

Man, I have stuff to do this week! Tuesday, I have an appointment to have my cath. changed. Hopefully, it won't lead to bladder spasms, which cause leaks. My library books must be returned or renewed on Tuesday as well. I need to buy a Christmas present for my sorority Secret Santa - the dinner and exchange is Thursday beginning at 4:30 and it's going to last probably until after 9:00. There is another gift exchange at the support group meeting which is at 11:00 on Friday, then the cemetary thingy is at 3:00.

So that's Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday; Busy, busy, busy. I have been so lazy lately, not going anywhere, or doing anything, I just hope I get motivated and organized.

Good Night, TTYL and Be Well
