Sigh
My Grandma Ragen died today.
I didn't know her very well, but I'm still terribly sad. She'd been fighting bone cancer for a while, but in the end it was her heart that did her in.
I could say now I wish I would have gotten to know her better, but that's a moot point. Hell, I didn't even really start interacting with her until I was older, at least not that I remember.
I feel worst for my dad. He spent a lot of years being very angry at her, and its only in recent memory has he realized that his anger was unfounded and he's been trying to make up for lost time.
All in all, it sucks, but I guess thats the circle of life.
She was a fighter, but there are some battles you just cant win.
Rest in peace Grandma, you've earned it.
