I Have Seen A Dead Body Before

My Irish grandmother was ill for a time, and everyone could say her dying was a relief for her from the pain she was in. I was called to go in to see her a few hours before she eventually did die, and none of us left the room.

She knew it was her last day. She settled a trustfund on each of her grandchildren, so we have independence available to us and the ability to pursue their interests inspite of the leprechauns! Seeing her lying there as she died was troubling.

I too have witnessed this twice. While painful due to being people I loved, it was also an experience similar to my children being born. It does change one’s perspective on life.
