Some good news and some very bad news

You've a good soul and she knows it. I wish you peace and comfort in your lose. Smoke and prayers coming for you and yours.
 
She's gone, away from pain, away from loss, away from fear,

Gone away where the wind blows warm and sweet, young again, walking in bare feet.

Away to the mountains and prairies,

White clouds and warm Sun.

It's tough losing family, that disease is thief of the lowest order.

I wish you well.

Jon
 
That sucks man. My mom just lost her battle with cancer about a month ago so I know how much it sucks to watch someone pass on. If you want to get a beer sometime let me know.

Edit: For some reason I thought your location said Gladstone. Yeah, we don't live near each other. I'm over by Portland but if you're ever in town let me know.

I read your post with a sense of sadness, admiration and respect.

I believe that your beloved grandmother was blessed to have you there with her. Had you not been, the end would probably have come sooner, you not only enhanced and enriched her life, you also extended it.

Your love, kindness and dedication, like your strength to do what you did, marks you as a rare person, and I am very sorry to read of your loss.

Your grandmother will live on in your heart and memory, I hope you feel better soon.

my house is in baker i have been watching my grandmother in gladstone
 
smoke your way. Sounds like you did a good job helping with the evening of her life. I'm sure she'll know it.
 
I'm very sorry to hear of your loss, my wife and I actually went to a Rosary last night for our friends grandfather. The priest said some things that I will pass on to you....Your grandmother had a great and long life, but just because she isn't physically with you, doesn't mean that she's "gone." All physical things come and go, even the mighty stars are born and eventually die, but it's the spirit that lives on. You can't touch, taste, or smell the spirit, but you can certainly feel it. Just like love, you feel the affects of it but you can't physically have it. The body lasts but a second in time, whereas the spirit lives on forever.

May God bless you and your family, J.
 
I'm sorry for your loss, she was blessed to have you there, I moved back to Alabama three tears ago to be closer to my only surviving and aging grandmother.
 
I lost my dad to Alzheimer's in 2008, but he truth is that he had faded away from 2003 on.
I took the attitude that he finally beat it. It is hard to have mixed feelings about losing someone. Alzheimer's is a terrible thing and I'm glad he's no longer a prisoner to it. Mac
 
My condolences brotha. I went through that with my father for 6 years before he passed, it's no fun. your a good man and good things will come!
 
I'm truly sorry for you loss. It has already been said over and over but she lived a good long life. She had a wonderful grandson in you. There is no more confusion or suffering. She's home in heaven sitting next our Father, beaming with pride at the man you are. May she rest in peace my friend.

May the good Lord watch over and comfort you in your time of mourning. God bless you Andrew.

I always have mixed feelings about the loss of someone that age. My own Mother is 94 now.
If their quality of life has been greatly reduced, then sometimes its best for them to move upstairs, and take their well deserved rest.

Never easy for those of us that are left behind, with memories and sorrow though.
