my grandmother passed away this morning

It is really surreal... we were waiting for it, in fact, I said I didnt think she would make it through the week... but the hospice nurse said a week to 2 weeks. But she died peacefully in her sleep this morning. Todd, Ethan and I were the last of the local family to get to her side, and then we were able to say our last goodbyes. It was incredibly emotional to see E kiss her goodbye.
Viewing is next Monday and funeral is Tuesday.

Re: my grandmother passed away this morning
Because we're fancy like that.
I literally just thought about her/you about 4 minutes ago.
Glad to hear things went peacefully.
My condolences to you and your family.
After 22 cycles and tube removal our IVF miracle has arrived! Detailed IF and IVF info in bio.
I am so sorry for your loss. I was thinking about you this am. I am glad you were able to say your goodbyes and that she went peacefully and surrounded by love.
Lots of prayers for your family.
I'm glad that you were able to say goodbye but I'm so sorry that you had to.
It is especially tough to lose a loved one during the holiday season. My grandfather passed away (many years ago) on December 24th (and his birthday and their wedding anniversary was December 23rd).
My thoughts are with you and your family.
I am sorry for your loss. Try to think of all the happy memories you had with her. She lived a long life, and it sounds like she had a peaceful passing.
Hang in there. Losing family is never easy.
Glad you got to see her one last time. I'm sure the memory of E kissing her goodbye will be one you will treasure always.
My thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.
Total score: 6 pregnancies, 5 losses, 2 amazing blessings that I'm thankful for every single day.
LO #1 - 1 unmedicated/self-monitored IUI w/ donor sperm.
LO #2 - 1 m/c, 2 BFNs, 4th IUI worked (unmedicated/self-monitored with new donor sperm).
Life is beautiful!
I'm very sorry for the loss of your Grandmother.
I'm so sorry but I know that you believe she is in a better place. I'm here if you need to talk or just have a break from everything.
You will like this- when we went to the funeral on Monday Charlie signed sleep when he saw his gggpa in the casket. What a easy way think about it. You will see her again someday and she will be watching over E until then. HUGS! I'm serious- call me if you need anything!

While sad, this sounds truly peaceful. Not easy, ever, but wow what a transition and how neat that her great-grandbaby and grandchild got to say goodbye. It might have been what she was waiting for. Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
