My grandmother passed away last week. R.I.P. 1914-2008 is a long lifespan. At 94, she still fought the good fight for her life but time wasn't on her side. I spent five weeks with her over July and August and in retrospect, I barely knew her when alive but on her sick bed it was as if everything that I had never known was distilled and revealed.
It was a turbulent five weeks in many ways. No matter how old one is, one can never understand life completely, unexpected facets reveal themselves all the time.

ReplyDeleteWhat a coincidence - I, too, met my grand-aunts passing away also in their 90's. I am sorry for your loss - your Granny was a special lady. Wish you well, my dear. Take care....
