Three weeks ago my Grandmother was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer as well as bone cancer. Since then she has steadily gone downhill and now we are looking at the last few moments of her life.
I have spent a few days with her this week, taking care of her, talking with her, and laughing with her. She told me the story of how she met my Grandfather, and how they became engaged. She told me how proud she was of me and my kids and made sure that I knew how much I meant to her.
Mostly we laughed.
I am very lucky to have spent these last few hours with her.

I am really sorry to hear that....it's always sad to lose someone you love, no matter their age. she sounds like a wonderful woman! you are so blessed to have a gramma as an adult. my grams were both gone by the time i was 5....but it's harder on you because you know what you are losing. hugs.

So sorry to hear about your grandmother. It's always hard to say goodbye to someone you love. How wonderful, though, that you were able to spend some precious moments with her. Love your sunset shot. So beautiful.
