"May Angels Lead You In..."
It's so crazy and scary how fast life happens. Two weeks ago, no one had a clue. Now we sit here and have to face the fact that tomorrow will be one of the hardest days in our lives. Six more months? Really? I was prepared to have six more months to spend with him. He didn't even get close to living 6 more days. The hardest part was seeing him still be so optomistic. He finds out he will die of liver failure and what does he do? He makes jokes. He tells jokes, hits on the nurses, and tells everyone what a blessed life he was able to live. What a man. He's the best man I've ever met. I was so lucky to have a great relationship with him. He made me feel so good about myself. Watching him die was the hardest thing ever. He struggled to take breaths....that's not how I want to remember him. I want to remember him as the 84 year old man who still loved to garden and build things. The man who bragged on all his children and his 17 grand kids. The man who could kick any one's ass in bridge or chess. The man who loved me and loved all his family more than anything. I thank God just for letting him be in my life. I'm glad I got to say good bye and tell him I loved him the night he passed. I'm so thankful that with his last breaths he knew how much I loved him. He's with Grandma again, and now I have another beautiful angel watching over me. Thank-you grandpa for making me see all the good in life and being the best person you could possibly be. Love you always and forever. <3333. See you again one day :)
