I've seen fire and I've seen rain...
Today my grandmother died unexpectedly.
She had not been sick. She was 83 years old. My grandfather, who is in a pre-dementia/alzhiemer state is still here. The heartbreak is for him having to live however many more days, months, years without his wife of 63 years.
It's a hard place to be, being sad about a loss, but being more sad about a loss of control from someone living.
My parents are in Switzerland on a dream vacation.
Evan is in Michigan.
So it was me and Linda in a perpetual loop with my grandfather all day.
The funeral home was the worst of it. Wendy's was the best of it.
Today was a hard day.
