\nI got a phone call today..my mom called me because my Aunt had called her today..instead of tomorrow or Sunday like we were hoping..but I’m getting ahead of myself *sighs*
\nI found out last night my Grandma is back in the hospital, some of you may remember from last year when my sister and I took a trip up to see her with my kids (2 of which she had never met)..she has lung cancer.
\nmy aunt was supposed to call Sunday after she talked to the Dr.’s tomorrow<\/I> or call tomorrow after she spoke to them if it didn’t look good..
\nthey called her today..
\nMy Grandma will not be leaving the hospital alive it seems…
\nThe cancer has spread all through her lungs, and the aneurysm is getting bigger (its on her aorta)
\nthe damn thing about this is we were all supposed to be getting together in July when one of my cousins got married, she had 9 kids, 8 are still alive, and 4 of them live out of state, they were ALL going to be there, plus their kids, and kids kids..you get the picture..this woman has will be leaving one hell of a legacy I tell you..
\nshe raised her kids single handed, in a time when that was usually only done due to spousal death, her husband left her to go it alone and she did! she never remarried…and all of her children love and adore her…as they should shes truly an amazing woman…
\nI remember when we lived near her and later when we moved and would take vacations to go visit her..she never was the typical baking cookies, story reading, kind of grandma..but I never had so much fun as when we were there. now that I’m older and know her as an adult she just amazes me..she always has, her strength and determination just blow me away..after my divorce it was her who helped me the most, we only talked one time but she was the one that said something that helped me more than anything.
\nShe’s fought off this monster for so long..I know she’s tired..and I know soon she won’t be in pain anymore..but that doesn’t mean I will miss her any less..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
