Loss my grandmother last night. I was somewhat prepared but I was prepared for a month from now, 2 weeks from now....I could put off those feelings because I still had time. I wasn't prepared for last night. Yesterday was supposed to be the beginning of the end....not the end.
She was the poster child for love...maternal, eternal, unconditional. She survived for over 10 years after she lost her greatest love. I would love to be there to see that reunion, what an amazing moment. That is the only thought that can get me thru.
I thought writing would help but it doesn't...nothing does. For once, I'm at a loss for words and I know words won't make it better. My only comfort is that the last thing I told her was "I love you Granny, I'll see you soon." and after a day of no words from her, she smiled and said "I love you sweetheart."

I am so sorry for your loss. Having lost my grandfather at the end of 2008, I know how you feel. I always knew it would happen someday, but you are never truly ready when it actually happens. I'm comforted by the fact that I got to talk to him so many times while he was in the hospital, and that he knew that I loved him before he passed. Every now and then, something will make me think about him, and it still hurts to think that he's not here. But, I'm glad for the time I had with him, and that he's safe in heaven with God where he's no longer suffering. You and your grandmother are in my prayers.
Mary - we haven't heard from you in so long! How are you??? Please let us know. We love you and miss hearing from you.
L'amore vince sempre su tutto.... un saluto da Fernando
