Good-bye Aaron

I have had no time to write. Which is good, I like being busy. But being already Wednesday in the week I figured I needed to write something.

Today was my cousin Aaron’s funeral. He turned 30 seven months ago. What he thought was a stomach ache was late stage Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. It’s very sad but he lived his life without knowing he was sick and without having to go through rigorous treatment. The questions we have are, is it hereditary and could it have been preventable? Growing up as farmers we’re exposed to multiple chemicals and products that normal kids and teenagers don’t.

So that’s my day. After seeing my church that I grew up in Leroy filled to the brim with “Steins” and our friends we said good-bye to an amazing person.

Aaron Phelps was a great human being and everyone who ran into him knew that. RIP

<3 Mrs. D

- I know I should write more on this, but if I do I'll start crying at work. So that is why it is short. -
