Well earlier this month well december, I was thinking about not doing band because my great-grandfather passed away December 26,2008. I have felt horrible about playing my instruments because I played the one I play the most right now(my bass clarinet) at his funeral. So thats why I decided not to do band. Then after a break down this evening my mom and I started talking and now I am pretty sure that I want to do band and that I shouldn’t feel guilty. My mom said that my grandad would want me to be in band, that it would break his heart if I wasn’t ……so I am pretty sure I am doing band. I don’t know why I didn’t want to do band, I think it is because he would always ask me to play my clarinet for him and I never would,I guess that’s why. Anyway I just need tons of support right now from family,friends,and even people I don’t really know….every little bit counts!

Your family is here for you, and I know you have a strong network of friends. I’m sorry this has been so hard for you. It’s been hard for all of us.
