I Lost My Grandmother

Thanksgiving Day 2014, my beautiful beloved grandmother passed day. It was the most devestating day of our lives. She was my daddy's mother. It still hurts that she isn't around anymore but she is no longer suffering. She had two strokes and got in a coma. My aunts and uncles all went to see her. At least they were all there and Grandma got to see all of her eight children. I was heartbroken that I could not make it to her memorial in Louisiana. I wasn't the only one that couldn't go. One of my aunt said, "You should have came. A lot of people were there." Plane tickets are expensive and I didn't have the money to go. I wish I could of. I blamed myself for not going but I shouldn't beat myself over it. It's the past. I was in my last week of school and was finals week. I was there in her spirit. Yesterday was her birthday and she would have been 79. RIP Grandma. Love you so much. 💔💔😢💖🎈

I can speak only for myself, but if my granddaughter were studying hard and taking finals to accomplish her dream and my dream for her, I would be intensely proud. If there is one single thing I am sure of, it is that the dead understand.

She knows everything you feel for her and would have scolded you for shirking your duties to attend her funeral.

I am so sorry. Losing my grandmother was one of the hardest experiences I have ever had. She passed in 2010 and I still think of her every day and long to talk with her. She is watching over you and her spirit is with you every moment.

I feel for you. I lost both my grandmothers. My dad's mother died in my brother's arms while my mother had gone to get my dad from work. This was in 1974, she was 76. My other grandmother had been put into a nursing home after my mother died in 1984 by my cousins. They never told us where she was placed, or how she was doing. Finally, I took to the internet and found her after my father died in 2003. She had passed away ten years earlier. My cousins never told me when it happened, nor where she is buried. I consider that an insult to our side of the family.
