I don't know what to say
07.09.04 (12:06 pm)   [edit]
I'm still in shock I think. My Grandma died yesterday morning. Her heart stopped and they couldn't revive her. Just two more weeks and I would've been home to see her.

I love you Grandma....I just wish I had been there.

Better days,

Sorry for your loss. Don't feel bad about not being there. You were probably there your whole life when it counted. That's far more important than showing up at the last minute, and the memories of you as a baby were probably the ones that lasted for her. If you think she's in heaven now, then she already knows your parting thoughts.

When my grandmother died, she was 101 years old. I was told that she has a few hours to live, or perhaps a day at the most. I flew in to see her. So did most of the family. Once we were there, she did not seem surprised to see us. She was matter of fact about it. I suspect that her mind was not all there or she would have asked when I flew in or why. But when we all got there, she got better. She started drinking fluids again. She knew who I was and who my children were when she saw the pictures. After a couple of days, we all went home. After we left, she died quietly a day or two later.

I wasn't there for her in her final hours, but I really didn't need to be. She lived a full life and it was over.

We all get exactly one lifetime to live, and I hope that your grandmother had a good one.

aww, that sucks, I've had a good amount of loses too, all of my great-grandparents, none of my grandparents yet, and a few relatives I didn't even know about.

It's hard to lose a loved one, and it seems to almost kill you. The pain is just so much.

Sorry about you're loss, I'm sure she loved you very much and she is watching over you now from heaven.

I recently lost my grandma as well, so I know how you feel. My blessings and prayers are with you.

Lost a family member and a friend a year ago last week, and lost a friend on Wednesday... he was only 35.

Wish you well in these times of mourning.
