You're right - even though you were blessed to have her so long, 47 years is not enough. I lost my 90-year-old grandpa just after 9/11, and I still miss him every day.</p>DonnaFri, 28 Oct 2005 10:17:31 -0000http://www.drumsnwhistles.com/2005/10/26/saying-goodbye/#comment-3777267<p>oh my friend, I am so sorry you are going through this, I did this almost 7 years ago this November as I sat next to my own grandmother as her body had shut down, and whispered in her ear that it was ok for her to go now, as we could see her fighting. I was so very grateful to be with her when she passed, after 5 years of terrible illness, there was such peace with her. No matter how prepared you think you are, you never are. You and your family are in my prayers.</p>shellyThu, 27 Oct 2005 08:23:21 -0000
