Ella Mae's In Heaven

I got a phone call at 545 this morning from my mother.  At first I thought...maybe she called me accidentally, but then it hit me, she wouldn't call me at that time of the morning on accident.  I called her back immediately.  I knew.  Grams had gone home. My mom was at the nursing home waiting for the ambulance to come. Grams had left us at 4am.  I wasn't shocked because we knew it would happen, but sad for a passing of the times. My last grandparent.  The one I had been closest to.  I will miss her-but I have great memories of our times together.  And I visited often in the nursing home. I feel at peace to.  No regrets.  I told her many times that I loved her.  I said goodbye this morning without too many people around.  
Please continue to keep my mother in your prayers.  As Tete says "it's hard to loose our mothers".  Use this upcoming Valentines Day to tell those you love...friends and family..that you love them!

  10. Rebecca,
    I am so sorry to hear that your grandma is gone.

    There is great peace in knowing loved ones are truly home, but the missing, and pain, are still so great.

    A long process as we go thru the grieving and healing cycle.

    You are all in my prayers.

    blessings to you, your Mom, and all the family and friends.
