Sad day, My beloved Granny died yesterday.

I will truly miss my Granny she was my rock and my most favorite person in the world. I am glad she is with her brothers and sisters. We are going to have a celebration of her life here but I do not have a date yet. Thanks for your kind words.

We were blessed to have have her so long and for her to be lucid when we saw her last. I am so lucky to have gotten to know her as an adult. I am calling myself Granny when our Grandchild it born in February because of her.
I will miss her, I am glad she is with the lord and her family that she missed so much.
Thanks for your kind words.

Thanks for your kind words. I am sorry you did not know your grandmother on your mothers side. Your father's mother sounds like my mom in a way. Mom would keep candy bars in the house but not share them with us. We where not worthily to have them.

I did tell mom and she turned the whole conversation around on her. She blamed that lack of relationship with her mother on Granny, she also went on to tell me that the clothes that I bought her did not fit. I am to buy her new clothes and also peanut butter and dried fruit because she gets so hungry. She not once asked how is her other daughters doing. She wants to go to the funeral if we have one her in town. But if we have one up in Washington "YOU KNOW I CANNOT GO"

Now mom had to be strong armed to go to Granny's husband's funeral and the same with going to her Aunt's funeral. I had to take her in her wheel chair and she only stayed for the funerals and I had to take her home. I then could go back to see the rest of the family. Now she wants to go to her mom's funeral who she did not love. She wants someone to push her around in her wheel chair and the family to make over her. She also wants to eat the food. Then she will get to order me around once again. It makes me sick. I do not want to take her out of the nursing home. I do not want to have anything to do with her. If she was kind, if she appreciate anything I did I could understand but she does nothing but grip about anything I do for her.
Then I think "It is her mother she has the right to go to her funeral" I am caught as to what to do. I might call the doctor and see what he says if better for mom. He might say she needs to say where she is at. Mom has been not feeling well.
I did tell mom that Granny died in her sleep so she would not think she is dying of a gangrenous bowel. Mom's sister died of cancer in her bones, that started in her upper arms so now mom knows she has cancer in her arms, her dad died of prostate cancer with mets to the back. Mom says that she has cancer of the back bone. So I did not want her to have cancer of the bowel.
Thanks for listening.

Thanks for your kind words. I did not cry when I saw granny the last time I saw her even I though I wanted to because I had a feeling it would be the last time I would see her.
She was such a great Lady.

Thanks Opal for your kind words. I do miss her and will always love her. I have a heavy heart now because my sister who is a bit selfish and was raised up to be the Golden child. You see My older sister was the wanted child. She was loved and given what she wanted by our parents. She took care of Granny the last five years of her life. Now is to busy to bring Granny's ashes to CA. for a funeral and burial until November.
Now my sister is having company September 30th-10 then 12 they have plans to go to Canada to celebrate Canadian thanksgiving, she is not going to put off those already made plans.

It is only the 17 and how many days does it take to bury ashes? Three four days at the max? We have two weeks before her company is coming. I am so upset because I think she is not paying Granny the respect that Granny deserves. If it was Deena's death granny would put her life on hold to bury her and then deal with company. Granny's body is still laying in the morgue in a hospital where she died.

Now there is the money Granny has. Deena gets it all. Granny had 1000's of dollars and my sister gets it all and she is treating Granny's memory and body this way.

I am so ashamed of her right now. If I had not been already taking care of our mother I would be the one doing this for my beloved Granny. Where is the respect? Where is the love?

I am welling up with tears just thinking about this. Granny made her decision to put my sister in charge so I cannot say anything. I just am so hurt over this mess my sister is making of things.

Thanks for listening

Granny was a wonderful person. You where the one who I told the story of going to Vegas with her. We also went to Vegas one time with her husband and my husband. We stayed on the 17th floor of the hotel. It had a picture window looking out over the mountains. The whole wall was window. Now Granny was afraid of heights, so Granddad and I would stand at the window and he would pretend to push me out the window and call Granny to look at us. She would get so scared and let out a yelp. We would laugh and laugh.

We traveled a few times with Granny and Granddad, her third hubby but I loved him like he was my real grandfather. We always had such great times.

When the funeral is our cousin who lived with us for a while growing up is going to come. We have lost track but we have gotten closer this last several months.
She is such a great gal. She has taken care of her mom like I am doing my mom. Her mom was just as bad as my mom. We know each others pain. I am looking forward to seeing her.

Thank you for your kind words

Thank you very much for your kind words. I am so sorry you could not see your grandmother at her ending time.
When my mother in-law died our daughter was so ill she could not go to the funeral. She had pneumonia so bad the doctor told her to stay home. She regrets that so much.

Aren't we lucky to have had such wonderful people in our lives? I am so glad Granny loved us for who were where and did until the day she died.
