Sent you some PM.
So I talked to mom for a long while. My aunti and uncle came out to visit them in Nevada. My uncle's not doing to well, health wise. Not sure how much longer he has.
Oh, no!
Similar situation for me. My step-grandfather died a few years ago, and for a while leading up to that they were commenting on how he "didn't have much longer."
We saw him not long beforehand...he looked pretty bad.
