I'm sorry to hear you've lost her and I know you have to be going out of your brain at the moment, just give yourself time to get through all the crazy stuff that's inevitable. These liminal moments are tricky and quite mind-blowinly difficult, as it sounds you already know.<br /><br />I lost my grandmother last year, shortly after her 93rd birthday. She helped my mom raise me, and was one of my absolute best friends. She had a very severe stroke a few days before her death, couldn't speak, and we knew she was closing down, so I sat by her bed and kept brushing her hair off her forehead, kissing her forehead, and telling her I love her. Tough stuff.<br /><br />You're a sweetheart. God bless you for letting your grandmother know how much you loved her and I very sincerely hope you find peace after working through the super hard immediate stuff. <br /><br />xoxojonathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01978698151802274612noreply@blogger.com
