Today marks fifteen years since my Nanna passed away, it really doesn't feel like that long and I haven't stopped missing her one little bit. She was my favourite person and I loved her (and still do) so very very much.
She was my dad's mother and he was her baby and favourite so that made my sister and I her favourite grandchildren. She used to cuddle me and tell me that I was her special girl and that she loved me and the highlight of my week was going to her house and on school holidays, we'd go and spend a night there and we'd get extremely spoilt by Nanna and her husband, Syd. My favourite teddy bear, Basil, who still sleeps on my bed every night was given to me by them when I was about 8 or so and I know I'm going to cherish him for the rest of my life. I could write more.. go into details about the time that she spent in the Austin Hospital in Melbourne and how we went every Wednesday night and Sunday morning to see her and then about her time back here in Bendigo, but I know that if I do I'll just upset myself even more than I am already. So instead, I'm going to post up some of my all time favourite pictures of her and I.
This is probably the last photo of her and I taken before she passed away.
Syd, Nanna, Melissa and me in their front yard in Epsom, probably about 1987.
Nanna and Syd used to go camping all the time and gold panning, we usually went out to spend the day with them. This day, Nanna was intrigued by the bright Zinc creams we had so let us put some on her. Note my stylish Punky Brewster hat :D
One of my absolute favourite pictures. Ever.
Another photo from one of their camping trips. I'm working the flares..
I hope you liked the pictures. I need to find more, but seeing as my scanner is dead, I can't scan them anyways *laughs*
On the Mum front. She's booked in for a partial mastectomy on May 1st, she'll be losing almost all of her right breast and hopefully that will get the whole tumor and it won't have spread anymore. Thanks for all the thoughts, it means a lot to know you all care.
Love you all,
