My Grandmother passed this morning. I didn’t find out until after work, about an hour ago. I think I am just numb at this moment. I had such a good day, maybe that was her gift to me.
I know the grief will come and when it does, it will be strong. I loved her so completely, she was very important to me. She was the only one allowed to call me Jenny, though she never played favorites I was always told by everyone that I was the favorite, she had a soft sopt in her heart for me, and I her. I always saw her at my wedding, holding my babies…you think, wish the ones you love could live forever. I know she is no longer in pain, and if it exists, her soul is in that better place in the sky. I wish I could hug her and tell her I love her, I didn’t get to say goodbye like I wanted.
I will be the strong one for the family, they need it. I usually am the strong one. It will be hard this time though because in the past, I had my ex to lean on and hold me when I needed it. Now, I am standing alone when I just wish I could be held.

I’m so sorry! She will live on in your memory — cherish her there!
I do know from experiences i have dealt with that the strength you look for comes when you most need it, and i too had to be strong for my family when we lost 2 of my sisters and its a hard cross to bear but someone inevitably has to do it. Just look after yourself in the process and don’t wear yourself too thin, take time to grieve when you need to. Best wishes to you all !!!
i will say a prayer for her. god bless you and your family.
