family loss

Got the call this morning about 4 am, lost my grandmother.

She'd been in a nursing home since 2006 after a knee surgery and the resulting complications made her dependent on care.

My aunt had supper with her last night and they had some laughs, and she was with her when she passed early this morning. I've just been going over the memories in my mind, and recollecting. She was my last grandparent...her husband, my grandfather passed in '76 before i was born. I'll probably be a little less visible for the next couple-3 days, my mom will be up and I'll probably help her with some stuff.

Above all, give your loved ones a hug and some kind words....even when you've had nearly 90 years, it's never enough time to say goodbye. :(

Peace to all

Thanks for the kind words folks. I'm doin mostly ok, comforted by the thoughts that she's no longer in pain and feeling helpless and a burden for others. She was one of the hardest working people I have ever known, and she was proud of her grandchildren and great grand kids.
She's missed. X
