How awful for her! I send my best wishes for her recovery! I really do hope she is going to be alright. Hugs for both of you!
My thoughts and wishes are with you and your little boy Azurielle. I’m sure he will be back and causing mischief in no time!
Setsuna, I wish you and you Aunt all the best and send my hopes for a speedy recovery. All the best!
Amy Jane, I feel for you! We were going to be in that exact situation but my Pa passed away before he had to go to the nursing home. As it only happened at the start of December my Nanna is still very much feeling the loss after being married to him for 65 years. (My Pa looked good even at the very end I must say, and we think all the ladies will be after him up there!)
Make sure your Grandma gets out of the house to go socialise as having the support network really helps. Go and see her a lot to help keep loneliness at bay and take her to see him often. Having her family behind her will help her to cope.
For yourself and your mum, don’t be afraid to cry. It’s healthy. You will have many huge sobbing sessions, both now and when he does pass away. Let it all out, as you will feel better for it. I still cry over my Pa as I loved him very, very much and I always will. I have giggled at his threat – “I’ll pack my matchbox and go”. Well he has finally packed his matchbox and gone! If your Grandpa has any funny phrases like that, I find it is therapeutic to have a bit of a giggle at them, and just remember the good times.
Spend some time with you Grandpa even if he doesn’t remember it, as you will and it will be a comfort to you when he does shuffle off the mortal coil.
I hope this helps you and remember it does get easier with time. He will always be with you, in your heart.
awww, thanks guys! 🙂 I did have a good day (I am a day ahead here in Australia)and my mates at work were giving me heaps all day with the old jokes (I’m only 29! Geez!!), hehe they’re so mean! 😀 I did get money for my birthday which means I can get a Windstone! Yay!
Congrats! You look beautiful, and the dress is stunning! The origami flowers are a wonderful idea too! So cute!
I’m so sorry LadyFirebird. Percy obviously loved you very much. He had a good life and was loved very much. That is all any of us can hope for. *hugs*
I am facing this myself soon. My kitty is 16 and has advanced kidney disease. The vet said she has months to live. We probably won’t have her this time next year. Every moment I spend with her is precious. I have grown up with her, so I will be devastated when she leaves us.
