I Want to Tell My Story

*Trigger warning as this story talks about death, I don’t think there’s anything particularly triggering, but I’ll put a warning just in case*

My grandma passed last Wednesday after four days in the hospital
She’s the only grandparent I’ve really known,
The matriarch of the family

I was in the room when she passed, along with my parents, my aunts, and one of my grandma’s closest friends
In the moments leading up to her passing I remembered a keychain I had gotten for her

@nobodyishome Besides my parents she was the most important person during my childhood

@JRVanguard I understand. I grew up without grandparents or my father. I don't know the special bond that can exist between old people and youngsters. But I wish I did. Grandparents love is selfless

They can be a child's best friend growing up. 😔 They love them more than their own parents. I know that much

@nobodyishome I’m sorry for your losses🖤

@JRVanguard Yea, I'm 34, but my grandma's was the only funeral I attended in my whole life. That too when I was like 10. But I am not good at goodbyes. I can't.
