I miss you Grandma

You left this world last Wednesday (October 18, 2006), and it's a darker place now. I never got to see you again, to hug you or touch you. I can never call you again and hear, "Well hey darlin'!". I hope that you really knew how much you meant to me. You were the only one who never made me doubt that I belong. I was blessed because my life had you in it. It's so hard to know that I can't talk with you anymore. You never got to meet my husband or my dog. Ahhh Grandma, what am I going to do without you? I'm so sad.

Mom comes home tomorrow and I know you wouldn't want me to fall apart in front of her so I'm trying desperately to hold it together. She's been so strong through this, you'd be proud of her. She's really trying to focus on the fact that you aren't hurting anymore, you aren't sick and you aren't smoking. I think heaven is a no smoking kind of place, isn't it?

Gram, I promise to do everything I can to be the best person I can be every day. I know, or at least I hope, you're watching over me always. I love you so much Grandma. I just really hope you knew that.
