Sebastian has Diabetes :(

Poor little kitty. He's been getting kinda thin lately and we really didn't know if it was just stress from having to deal with Io, old age, or something more serious. It turned out to be diabetes, and as of monday we'll be giving him regular insulin injections :(

It kind of seems to me that an era is coming to an end. The era of Addie and Sebastian. I hope that the little guy'll hang on for a few more years, since we caught it early, but he looks pretty scrawny and sad, sleeps a lot, and his back legs look a bit wobbly...

It seems weird, how life cycles. Addie died; Julian and Io were born. The grandma's will die, but their children live on, they will die, but us "kids" will live on (I'll stop there). Inevitably we will all die, but our children will live on (if everything works out how it should). Maybe I'm in a weird mood, but it makes me a bit sad.

Even seeing all of the Gr. 12's being led around campus, happy and bright-eyed about getting into university, it seems like we are growing up.

When did we stop playing?

When did we stop asking the question "what do u want to be when you grow up?" of our peers, and more importantly of ourselves?

So that makes me come to a turning point.. A point when I could either sulk about what used to be, how we are going to die, and how nothing will ever be the same... OR I could suck it up and be a bit more optimistic! :) (I choose the second option)

We are grown up, and its time to make some changes in the world. We finally can!
Stop this damn global warming, and mass destruction of ecosystems! woot, now i'm pumped! :)
To sound super cliche, lets make some positive changes so that our chidren can enjoy the world we left for them, and not constantly have to worry..

I'm just happy that I am alive to have witnessed all these great things in life so far! :)

(wow this post went so off topic, but lets just say that even though Addie is gone, and Sebastian has diabetes, they each were loved and continue to be.)
