Re: My Awesome Grandma

My grandmother has taken a turn for the worse and my Mom is getting a flight home. Please pray.

My mother is in the photo. It is truly an awesome and amazing heritage. I wish I could go be with my Gram right now. She has many, many people with her right now. She has made so many comebacks it has been amazing. I keep expecting her to make another one, since at age 96, she said "Four more years!" However, seeing her in the pictures and videos, she has declined so much. They think this is really the end. I have been so blessed to have a part in this family. I wish I could have been around them more when I was young. (We lived 1800 miles away.) I have seen this strong Catholic family live their lives in faith and be blessed with the blessings that go with that. It has been truly incredible.

I had the opportunity, deciding kind of on a sudden spurt, to go visit my Grandmother while my Mom was on the island in 2010 (Prince Edward Island, where my grandmother lives) and I stayed for 10 days. My immediate family was very supportive of this as when I mentioned it casually, that it was in the back of my mind, they practically pushed me out the door. I will never, ever regret doing so. I got to spend some very quality time with her.

Thank you all for your prayers. With my grandmother goes the hub of the wheel, when she is gone.....we all splinter off into our families. We should all leave such a heritage....

Are you talking about this quote?

You cannot change the people around you but you can change the people you choose to be around.
