Yesterday, December 29, at roughly 1:45 p.m. my grandmother passed away. She was not alone. My mom, dad, brother, aunt, aunt's boyfriend, cousin, and I were all with her. She had fallen early yesterday morning, hit her head, and had a brain bleed. My dad woke my brother and I at about 8:45 in the morning and told us we had to get to the hospital because Mom wanted us to say goodbye.

We spent all day with her, had various visitors to say goodbye, and then she passed away. The nurse said, "I'm sorry for your loss," and I just started bawling. After that, we went to the nursing home to retrieve some of her things, but left most of her clothes for others, and then went to the funueral home to make the arrangements. From there we went back to the hospital to get our cars (we had all piled into my dad's van so we could all be together) and then went our separate ways.

My brother and I had to go get shoes for the wake and funeral from there. Keep in mind, my brother was living on about 2 hours of sleep, while I was living on 4. We were tired, irritable, and sad. We got our shoes, went to dinner with our parents and uncle and aunt that had just gotten into town, and then finally went home.

I told one friend about what had happened because she called me to invite me to go to dinner with her and some other friends, and from there my other friends found out. One friend called me, kept asking if I was ok, and things like that. The other called and said I needed a hug. I'm really hoping my friends can make it to the wake today. I need them.

Today is the wake, and tomorrow the funeral. Happy New Year, right?

Thanks for reading guys. Sorry for the depressing blog, but I'm really grateful you guys read about this. I needed to talk about it.

Really guys, hope you all have happy New Year's!! Love you guys.

I love you Grandma. I'll miss you.

Oh Sagi...my sweet Sagi.... You know I am thinking of you and sending my deepest condolences. I also have a never ending supply of hugs with your name on them, to take whenever you need. I hope the pain in your heart is soon replaced with fond and happy memories of your grandmother's love.

Sagi, I'm saddened to read about your grandmother. Take your friends up on their offers if you need to talk or just not to be alone. I hope you can remember some good times with your grandmother ...soon to help with the loss. Take care.

Sagi! I just found out! I am so sorry! *hugs* Look.. We don't really know eachother that well, but I know exactly what you're going thru. My Grandpa just died in a housefire in September, and I almost lost my Grandma there aswell. For days we had no idea how she whould do, it could go either way with her. Thankfully she made it, and she is doing better than I ever thought she would. Just, you know, if you wanna talk to someone who knows what you're going thru right now, someone who's just been there herself, just PM me.
