Leave or live 100, maybe???

Someone reminded me about my grandmother who left this earth 2 years ago. She was 99. Her birthday is June and she died May of the same year. We missed her 100th year birthday for a month. I saw her breathe her last breath and it pains me even now when I think about her. She suffered enough, had many complaints - physically and emotionally - in the real sense of a word -she is in pain for a decade back then.
Weird but disappointing, her children (our uncles and aunts, my mom's no longer around. She went ahead of my grandma), wanted to extend her for another month or so for her to celebrate the 100th year.
Sometimes, when I think about this, I don't now what I feel. What's the point in prolonging the agony of my grandmother just to reach a feat?

I think it makes no sense, matches a man for some obscure for me to this chore.Starsza person only gets tired, in pain, may not wish to own such termination zycia.100 years is a nice age, but it is also important that we were aware of that we had survived so many years in full consciousness, otherwise it makes no sense.

The greatest gift SHE could receive for her birthday was to be free from a diseased or sickly body.
You can still celebrate her birthday every year in June as a way of keeping the love you have for her...alive.
I don't know what you hold in your belief system but I believe that our deceased loved ones can still visit us and spend time with us on a metaphysical level.
By celebrating her birthday...even after she's gone...you might be inviting her spirit to continue to bless your life.
I can't prove any of this...it's just part...of my belief system.
