The past couple of weeks has been rough. DH's grandma began going downhill and only hospice interveened to keep her comfortable. Last Friday I left work to be with DH and to visit his grandma. We are so happy we did. She was surrounded by loving family the entire day and into that evening. (This also marked 5 years that MY gram had passed away.) The next day Saturday 12/22, she was again with family and her son was on his way home from California to be with her. He arrived to the nursing home around 8:30pm, or so. He along with my MIL and their sister spent the next couple of hours talking to her and comforting her. As they got up to leave for home for a little sleep, they noticed her breathing changed and within a couple of minutes she had passed away, peacefully. Thank God they made it home to see here, albeit only a couple of hours. We are all convinced that she was waiting for her only son to make it home to see her one more time. So then we still celebrated our Christmas Eve and Day because that's what my MIL wanted to still do. It's her favorite time of year. We still had lots of joy and remembered so many wonderful things of DHs grandma. Then on the 26th we had her calling hours and on the 27th she was laid to rest next to her husband.
I wanted to post this here because you are the ladies I know the most and who will understand my absence. I may decide to repost this on TTCAL as well but for now this is where I wanted my message to be. I know you all understand. And as these next few days carry on, I'll be back to TTCAL (and here!) on a much more regular basis.
I'm hoping you all had a very nice Christmas and I know how much we are ALL looking forward to the New Year! Lots of love and hugs to you all
