Sorry for no blog on Monday.

To be honest I've had a rough couple of days. No secret, says it on
the side of the website that my mom passed about only about two
months ago.

I talked to my mother every single day and was with her as much
as possible. I just can't shake her last days here on Earth out of my
head.  She was not in horrible pain or anything but it's just that I
laid with her for some nights just holding her hand. She was afraid
and so was I. I can't stop thinking about it lately. It meant so much
to me to be there, especially looking back, and she was so calm it's
just so hard to even type without welling up.

Career wise I am so happy right now...and then I get ANGRY
because my mom is not here to share it with me. It really makes
me mad. Not sure if I feel guilty about it or what...just upsets me
greatly.

Things that my son Steven does or Adam and that my mom isn't
here to see it makes me so upset too. It hurts so bad.

I miss my family back in Illinois and can't wait to see them. My
brothers, my step dad, my aunt and her fiance, my in laws, friends.

Guess I'm just having some rough moments and I'm thankful Kelly
is here with me. Sorry to bring the room down.

Talk to you soon.

My wife, Kelly, is
walking in the Susan G.
Komen 3 Day Walk in
August back home in
Chicago.

This is something near
and dear to us as we
try to raise money to
defeat breast cancer.

She is walking for my
mother...Anne...she
passed away January
21st of this year.

If you know anyone
who has been affected
by breast cancer or
would like to help
please donate! THANK
YOU for any support
you can provide.

This is very personal
for us and our families
and affects many
woman today. At first
I felt weird about
asking for donations,
but you know what, it
is a major issue and
the more awareness
and help the better!

Joe and Kelly
