Overnight my Grandma C. passed away. She has been in and out of the hospital and rehab nursing centers for some time now and her body has just been struggling. The last few days were very hard on her so I’m glad she isn’t suffering any longer. I am going to miss her so much though – I know I have tons of great memories of her, but that isn’t the same as having her here to talk to and see and hug.
This picture is from a couple of years ago, but it is Grandma at her chair in her kitchen where I almost always found her when I went to visit. I’m sure in this picture she was starting to laugh -she had the best laugh!
I have thousands of memories of Grandma running through my head right now that I want to share, but I just don’t know where to begin. Maybe it is too soon?
Wednesday I was able to go up to see her. Even though she was doing better that day and even yesterday afternoon, I knew it was probably going to be the last time I saw her. I was able to tell her again how much I loved her and give her hugs and kisses. You could tell she had been suffering I think, but I asked her to give me a tiny little smile before I left and she did and that is my last picture of her in my mind.
Thank you Grandma for being there for me. My heart is breaking today, but I know that I will always have you with me in my heart. I Love You!
