5 years ago tonight is when my dad called me to tell me that my Grammie was in critical condition at the hospital due to a stroke and for me to get to the hospital as fast as I could…
I am so grateful that I was able to get there and tell her thank you for being such a wonderful Grammie and that I loved her. Grammie responded saying, “I tried, and I love you too baby” and those were the last words that Grammie was able to speak to me. Grammie held on until October 12th, when she passed away while I was holding her hands and telling her how much I loved her, how much we all loved her, and that each one of us would be by her side someday…
I spend time visiting Grammie almost every time I pass the cemetary. I stop in to make sure the birdfeeder is full and that her angels haven’t fallen over, and I talk to her about what’s going on, and after almost 5 years I still cry and tell her how much I love and miss her.
I visited Grammie this afternoon and we had another long talk…

nothing wrong with talking to your Grammie I talk to my Mom & Dad every time I go to Maine to the cemetary I feel at peace when I do!! Love, Aunt Sharleen
What a sweet post. I am sure she enjoys those long talks just as much as you do.
Hugs!
I lost my Nana to a stroke..but I wasn’t able to say goodbye. I miss her.
I lost my Nan to breast cancer and I wasn’t there when she passed away. I had seen her the day before, my aunt and uncle had seen her that night and she had just been told that my mum had come through an operation on a brain haemorrhage. She made sure we were all ok and then left us. That was 15 years ago and I still miss her. It’s good that you still talk to her, I talk to my nan’s photo every time I dust!

Oh my gosh

I never really said goodbye to my grandma. I was 16 and too wild to really deal with it.
