the last few days have not been very good ones. monday night i was deathly sick and vomiting most of the night. i had some awesome cajun food that tasted great but my stomach hated. i woke up to bad news on tuesday morning. they removed the life support from my grandmother and she passed away. it was her whishes to not be hooked up to machines for very long. it is very hard to see her go, but it was harder to see her in that condition. the doctors did everything they could possibly do for her. i guess it was just an atypical pneumonia that they couldn't cure. i will miss my granny. she was like a second mother to me. i'll always remember the times when i would sit on the arm of her recliner and she would scratch my back. when i was younger i would spend most of the summer at their house when i worked at the restaurant and was dating megan. she would always have my laundry fresh and clean for me. i'll miss the jello salad that she used to make. it was one of the best deserts.... there are so many other good memories that i have. i just hope she is in a better place now.
anyway, the visitiation will be tomorrow afternoon and funeral around 2pm.

Oh my, Jimmy I am so very sorry to hear of your granny's passing. I know how very hard this is going to be on everyone, I always knew her to be a wonderful lady. She certainly loved you and Lisa! I remember visiting her when I lived up the street from her, and her walls were always covered with pictures of you two, and she was always talking about you! Things like this are so hard to accept, I know, and I know you will be there for your Grandpa Teddy, as I am sure he will need you in the coming days more than ever. Please convey my deepest deepest condolances to your entire family, and my heart goes out to you, after all you have been through and now this heartbreak. My family and I will hold you in our prayers especially in the difficult next few days. God bless you all.
Sincerely, Linda McGray, Yarmouth Nova Scotia Canada
My apologies for omitting Tracy's name, Helen dearly loved all her grandchildren, that was one of the most obvious things about her. As well as her enjoyment of making a welcoming and comfortable home! .... Linda
