OT - My Grandmother

  Well I just got the call from my Mom that my Grandmother (Dad's mother - the one up north of Scranton) passed away last night. I was taking Mia up to meet her on sunday. She was an amazing lady who had a flare for life and always did things dramatically. She made all of her own clothes and had a preference for large floral patterns. She had heart issues and we almost lost her 2 years ago due to congestive heart failure, but meds got her back on track and she was doing great until a few days ago when the symptoms came back - nausea, vomiting, swelling etc.
I will be headed up there tomorrow morning (saturday), she didn't want services so there is just going to be a picnic on sunday at the house.   I know that she is at peace now but it breaks my heart that she didn't get to meet Mia.

We could sure use your thoughts and prayers

Liz  

Oh honey - I am sooo sorry - she did know about Mia.  And you will now be able to be there on Saturday with the entire family as they all get to meet her.  I am sending thoughts and love to you as you go through this next chapter! 

Aww Liz,

Sooo very sorry to read your sad news and I remember when your Grandma was ill a couple of years back. . .  anyway, sweetie, I hope you hold onto your dear memories as comfort and your little Mia has a very special angel to watch over her now. . . 

Prayers going out to all touched by your Grandma for peace and strength in knowing she is just looking down with all her love on those left here on this earth.

Hugs, Laureen

Oh I'm so sorry to hear this.  I love that you said she lived her life with 'flare'. 

Hugs and positive energy going to you and your family.

Liz,
I am sorry for your loss. My condolences coming to you and your family. Just remember your grandmother is now an angel looking over your daughter. {{{{{{Hugs}}}}}

My condolences Liz. I know exactly what you're going through. I lost both a grandmother and grandfather (different sides of the family) within the last week. Remember the goods time and treasure the memories you have.

Holly,

I'm so sorry you've lost 2 special people, all within a week.  Please accept my condolences.
