Just wanted to thank you all and let you know that Grandma is at peace. She died at 11:32 last night. We had called hospice to come over because she was really struggling to breathe. Yesterday she was really totally unresponsive all day, but I know she could hear because she did react to sounds. At one point I hugged her and stroked her face and told her it was OK to go. I told her to say hi from me to my Mom, Grandpa and Uncle Doc when she gets there.
I just can't quite believe she is gone now. I walk past her room and she isn't there. I miss her so much.

Hey Holly! While it is so sad to lose your dear Grandmother; you now know that she is pain free and w/Grandpa. You have been an amazing G'Dau to her and she passed knowing how very much she was loved.
Take care Holly and she may not physically be here, but she's always going to be w/you in your heart through your wonderful memories and love for each other. ![]() I am keeping you and your family in my prayers during this difficult time.

Holly, I am so sorry. I know it hurts. You said it best. She is at Peace now.
Keep that close to your heart and let it give you peace. That is what I keep holding on too when I think of my dad. I think of how peaceful he looked after struggling to breathe for days. I'm sorry I wasn't online to be here for you today. I got pulled in so many directions. I have thought about you all day long, thinking I needed to get online to see how you were doing. You will have moments when you forget. I still do. I drive up my mom's driveway and look at the window to see if someone is by his bed. Then I remember he isn't here anymore. My sister is pregnant and having the baby Monday. I will think "I'll stay with Daddy while Mom goes to the hospital." Then I remember. My heart is breaking for you right now. The loss is so close right now. I wish I had more words of comfort and wisdom, but I don't. I know times heals the hurt. I'm waiting for that. You will be too. The memories will always be there. I love you like a sister Holly. I'm so sorry you have to feel this hurt now, but your grandmothers hurting is over. That is something to be thankful for. I have to work tomorrow, but will be home by 3pm. I will check on your then. Love ya girl DAY |
