It's been a while since I last wrote and a million and one things have happened since then.
I've lost my grandmother. She was the back-bone of my family. Now that she is gone I don't know what we are going to do without her.
She helped our parents raise us [grandchildren] since our toddler years.
How do you get over losing someone that's been the glue that held your family for so long? Should people really rely on other's that way in life? It's getting easier, and I know she is in a better place, but I still miss her being here and talking to me and calling every night just to see how everyone is doing. Now that the calls aren't coming anymore, we see just how lonely life is without her.
I mean, she put up with a lot of pain to stay and the doctor's always said that she has out lived their expectation, but we still need her down here with us. But, I'm grateful to the 15 + years she stayed, loving us through all her pain just waiting until the time she knew we would be alright without her here with us, but it's still hard to over come such a loss.
Grandmothers are just like Mothers. No matter what you can't replace them with anybody else and to try is disloyal to their memories.
I'm glad she gave us tons of memories to remember her by and that she is a Guardian Angel in Heaven watching over us all. And no longer in pain.
This is what helps me get by when I'm missing my grandmother and wanting to talk to her.
Grandmother - 1942-2010 Loving Mother and Grandmother. Sadly Missed.
