althought yesterday started out perfect, with a trip to a place beyond beautiful, it ended in a truly sad note.
my mom phoned and told me my grandmother had a stroke.
she failed to show up at my aunts house for lunch, who promtly went to her house to check on her and found her laying on the ground, paralised.
she's still in the hospital, and although partially paralised, she still remebers everyone is and is able to talk.
i cried mysef to sleep yesterday, but today i was able to talk to her in the phone and that made me feel a little better.
she's almost 90 and is a strong, witty, little woman. i just hope i can enjoy her company for a little longer...
i really love my grandma!
My dear Joanna, I'm very sorry to hear of your grandmother. I wish her a speedy recovery, that she may soon be home with you. And that you can spend much much time with her.

ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry to hear about your grandmother. I'll keep her, you and your family in my thoughts and prayers tonight.
Hope your grandmother gets well soon. I understand that you must be devastated, I myself am extremely close with my grandmother as well and don't know what I would do with myself should something happen to her.
ReplyDeleteLove your blog with really luscious photography.
