So, I rarely update the blog but decided to get on here and change things. Everyone knows that my husband, Aaron, passed away April 9, 2009. We were Lee Party of Five, now changed to a family of four. It is still so bizarre that this has all happened. Five weeks ago today, Aaron was at the church playing basketball with friends and collapsed, and happened to have possession of the ball at the time. He always was a ball hog! Throughout all the chaos, one of the elders gave him a blessing and they proceeded to administer CPR. The paramedics arrived and started working on him and that is when one of his friends called me. I knew when I saw the caller ID that something was wrong. Chris told me that Aaron had collapsed and that they were working on him and that it didn't look good. I immediately started shaking, not believing what I was hearing. A couple of friends came over and one took me to the hospital. I waited in the regular waiting room for a short time and then a nurse came in and took me into a private waiting room. That is never a good sign! My friend, Deb, was with me when the doctor and nurse came in to deliver the devastating news. The doctor said Aaron took only one gasp. He died of a massive heart attack at age 31. No one could believe it. I still can't believe it. I'll write more at a later time.
