I will always cherish my memories with her...

When we got home from the cruise on March 22nd I received a call from my sister Michelle telling me that my Grandma(Nanny) had gone into respiratory failure and was on life support. I knew that she had not been doing good for months but I wasn't ready for this. The next day she started showing signs of improvement and I was even able to talk to her on the phone. I was really convinced that maybe she would be okay for a little while till I could fly home to see her. I was going to buy a ticket for mid-April and go spend a weekend with her. On the morning of March 25th my sister called me and told me she had passed at 7am that morning. I flew home the next day and attended her funeral on that Friday. I thought I had experienced hurt when my dad passed, until now. Don't get me wrong, I love my father but I was very close to my Nanny. I know it was her time and she is in peace now, but I don't think there is ever a way for one to mentally prepare themselves for loss of a loved one. She was an amazing, classy lady who passed her legacy on to her four girls(granddaughters). I will always love you Nanny, thank you for all those wonderful memories, laughs,sitting with you in the swing on the back porch,and cooking in the kitchen.
