my great grandmother edith passed away. november 22,2007.
We all knew it was going to happen soon, but we didnt know when. Lately she has been all we think about and always asking how shes doing. since shes been sick. she had a headattack a little bit ago, and we knew her death was coming soon. my pop pop said she would die on thanksgiving, and she did. Even tho we knew about it, it still hurts.On mothers day, our family sat together with her, and she didnt know who any of us were besides my mom mom and pop pop and aunt robyn. that broke my heart that she couldnt even tell me my name or any of us. Knowing the person you love doesnt know you is the worse feeling ever. After mothers day, she had a heart attack. but got better. Then her body became weak. Early morning on thanksgiving, she died. in her sleep. when my mom got the phone call, i was so inshocked. i didnt know what to think or what to do, i put the phone down and started crying my eyes out.
i just couldnt imagine what my life would be like now. till this day i am still inshocked. i miss her so much now, even typing this is making me cry. i cant imagine how my life is going to be knowing shes not with us anymore. i went to her wake today. it was the hardest thing i have ever done in my life. i cried in the bathroom, i didnt want my family to see me. the casket was open from 1230-1 for family only. but i couldnt handle seeing her there. i dont want to remember her dead, i want to remember her alive. at the wake, i saw people i havent seen in years. it felt good. and im sure grandma would be happy to see her family together again like the old times. my grandma is being burried next to her son, and her husband. her funeral is everything she wanted. (: my aunt robyn wrote her a note and put it in the casket. and my aunt mary gave her a box.
its going to take awhile for me to be my normal self.
i've been crying since thanksgiving.
tomorrow is the funeral, when shes put in the grown.
but im goin to school.
i hope i dont get emotional in schooll
