My grandmother passed away on Saturday April, 16th. She had been struggling with her health for several months and her body would go into almost complete failure if she was even exposed to any kind of cold or flu. Towards her last few weeks my mom would go over everyday and give her food and keep her company. When she finally passed it was extremely difficult for my Mom. The funeral was a couple of days for the viewing and then the ceremony the next day. It was tough on us but we're glad that grandma is painfree and in heaven. My Mom is still very visibly upset and even though she was aware that my grandma would pass soon, nothing could have prepared her. It has been one week since her funeral and my Mom is doing a bit better but refuses to be alone. She says she wants to be with family and not have to think about being alone because it makes her sad. It's been such an emotional couple of weeks but we all know grandma is in the best place she can be.
It was wonderful how many family members from all around came to celebrate her life and we were able to reminisce and tell stories. It was a nice to hear about all of her quirks and the things she accomplished and believed. Thanks to everyone for the well wishes.
