Im getting ready now to pick up my Grandmother from my apartment and take her to the airport, and the hardest part for me is saying Goodbye. We always get emotional and tear for a bit especially when she is hugging my kids and crying at the same time. My grandmother spent an amazing 4 days with us and she leaves to Ny on a 2 pm flight.
Why is it soo hard to say goodbye to someone you really love and care for? I honestly dont like goodbyes, I prefer to say see you soon.

I suppose as we all get older there is always the thought in the back of our minds that time may be running out so saying goodbye gets harder. Both of my parents are in their 80s and live about 150 miles from me. It gets harder to return home each time I visit because I just never know what might happen before I get the chance to visit again.

@BACONSTRIPSXXX at least, you'll see her fairly soon, although I know it may not seem like soon enough.

It is hard, I know when my uncle was here, I figured it would be the last time I would see him, unless I go there, which I am not traveling right now.

A visit from a family member that does not live near by is always hard to say goodbye to. I am glad you were able to spend some time with your grandmother.

It was nice that your grandma was able to visit but it's always sad saying goodbye. Hope you get to see her again soon

"See you soon" is good. Just remember the good time you had with your grandmother and the wonderful memories your kids will have with her. Yes, it's hard.
I miss my grandparents, too. They've been gone a long time, but they gave me many happy memories as a kid and I'll always be grateful for that.
