Grandma B
It’s time now that I need to post something that I never wanted to have to post. I’m not posting it for other people to read as much as I am posting it for my own feelings to begin to heal.
As I sit here typing this in my Word editor, the screen looks cold and dead. I have no comfort from it to help me with my words. Forgive me if my grammar isn’t as sharp as it should be for a 2 year old.
The week of May 4th, I noticed that my Daddy was on the phone a lot with with Aunt Bobbie, Aunt Dee, and my Grandma B. Every day when he got home from work he would call and talk to my Grandma B. He would go outside where he could have some quiet time to talk. He would come back inside and he looked really sad. Then there was one day, on Wednesday I think, when he got off the phone with Grandpa B and Aunt Bobbie and he started crying really hard. I didn’t know what to do so I just stayed next to him on the bed and tried to make him feel better. On
Friday, I got to see Grandma B on the computer. Daddy and Aunt Bobbie hooked it up so that we could see each other. Grandma B also got to see a video that Daddy uploaded to the internet so that Grandma B could see me walking around. She hadn’t been back out to my house since I started walking yet. The next day, Mommy took Daddy to the air port so that he could go and visit with Grandma B. Daddy got to Chicago and Aunt Bobbie and Amy picked him up from the air port and they drove to the hospital. Daddy got to see Grandma B and spend some time with her and talk with her for awhile. She was very tired but was very happy to see him and everyone else too. Daddy wanted to stay in the hospital the whole time with her but knew he had to eat and sleep. He came back every morning to see her.
For two days, she rested and was comfortable in bed. On Tuesday morning, Grandpa B went to the house where Daddy was staying with everyone and let everyone know that they wouldn’t be going back to the hospital. Daddy called Mommy and Mommy told me that Grandma B died. I was very sad for Daddy.
I loved my Grandma B and I had only known her for 2 years. Grandma B had been there for Daddy through so many things, especially when my brother Ethan died. I felt helpless because I couldn’t be there for Daddy to make him feel better this time. I talked to him on the phone the best I could. I’m very sad that I won’t be able to grow up with Grandma B but I think that she is still here. I think she’s here right now as I’m typing this so she can read as I type it. I think she is helping me with the words.
Every time Daddy cooks, he says that Grandma B is helping him figure out the recipes to make the food really good and he does, too!! I love those ribs!!
Daddy said that I was the light of Grandma B’s life since I was born 2 years ago. 2 years doesn’t seem like that much time for her to see me, but that’s my whole life so far!! Grandpa B came out to see me a couple weeks ago and he was very happy to see me and we spent a lot of time playing together. I hope he comes to see me a lot more. I miss you very much, Grandma B. Daddy misses you alot too. I love you.
