Oct. 24th, 2008 06:10 pmMy grandmother passed away earlier this afternoon, around 3:30 CST. I called my mother before then, and she told me that my grandmother was having trouble breathing and wasn't responding to the treatment, and basically that she was fading fast. When I called back around 4:20, mom told me the news.
Although I'm disappointed that I wasn't able to tell her goodbye, I'm mostly relieved for her. Her quality of life was just horrible and getting worse by the day, so at least she won't have to be put through that anymore, and at least she's with my grandfather now.
We haven't set a date for the funeral yet. In fact, I don't really know the specifics. I'm waiting to ask until my mother gets home.
I really wish most of my friends had met my grandmother before my grandfather died. She's partially the reason why I'm an artist and not a dancer, since she was an artist herself. In fact, that's the reason I'm so disappointed I couldn't say goodbye - I really wanted to tell her how much she's influenced what I love.
