We Love You Grandma

Saturday, January 29th 2011

I could hardly sleep at all last night and kept checking to see if my parents had come home yet. I almost drove down to the hospital in the middle of the night and now I wish I would have. I didn't want to call and wake them in case they were all sleeping next to Grandma peacefully, but it turns out they hardly slept a wink either.

When I spoke to them at 7am, things were still the same. I waited for them to come home and hoped we'd all go back together after I fixed them breakfast while they showered.

Then, at 8am we got a call from Uncle L that Grandma passed away. Even though we knew it was coming at any moment, it still felt like a dagger through my heart. My heart that was already broken.

I got to kiss her goodbye and tell her how much I love her one last time and the rest of the day was spent with hugs, tears and love with all the family together.

We love you so much Grandma.

Peace...
