My Grandmother Ruth died tonight around 6:18 p.m. We were all there, right by her side. I was running my fingers through her hair as she took her last breath.I love this photo of her. I know it's not conventional, but she's doing what she was always doing: talking away.
I'm going to miss her way more than I could ever express. I thought I had already mourned for her, but I was wrong. I'm not quite sure what I'm going to do without her. She was my everything for so many years.
She's in heaven now, and I'll see her again one day.
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am the sparkle in the snow.
I am the shredded leaves that blow.
I am the sunlight on growing grain.
I am the gentle summer rain.
I am the quiet bird at night.
Circling about; Taking flight.
So do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.

Rachel, i am so sorry about your grandmother's passing. She was blessed to have you all around her.
my husband's grandfather had alzheimer's, and when he passed we were very sad, but there was releif in knowing that he was now whole and sound again, soul and mind reunited. and when Kevin's grandmother passed several months later, we knew they were together and reunited once more.
you will see her again.
much love to you Rachel,
Heather
