My wonderful grandma is doing worse. They are not talking about surgery for her fractured hip, but hospice. This makes me very, very sad. Okay, she's 96, but I want her to live! Yes, she's had a great life. Many of my most happy childhood memories are from when I would visit her each summer. She would spoil me (relative term, we were dirt poor, so she bought me new school clothes) and love me up!
I know I keep anonymous, but here's a picture of me and Grandma last year at her 95 birthday party.
Please pray for her, that she find peace (oops, I typed peach the first time!).
Please also take a moment to think about/call/thank the women in your life who bring/brought you joy.

I'm so, so sorry to hear this! :( Keeping you and your grandmother in my thoughts. (What a great photo, by the way.) I know that hospice feels like such a scary thing... I have the occassion to work with hospice workers for my job, and they are some of the kindest, most compassionate, supportive people in the world.
Sending a hug...
I am so sorry! You, your family and your grandmother are in my thoughts! It sounds like you have a wonderful relationship. Thank you for sharing the photo!!

You are both beautiful!
I will pray for her.

I've heard really wonderful things about Hospice. Be with your grandma as much as you can.

You are going to make me cry! My relationship with my grandmother is very similar- she just turned 93 and is about to undergo some medical tests - I'm worried & I am feeling same things you are. Thoughts & prayers with you and your grandmom- women like her and my g.mom are an inspiration to me. love you-
That is a beautiful photo, you both look so honestly happy (which is not a common thing). I am sending strength and love via this message and hope for the best for your grandma.
I'm so sorry to hear that your Grandmother is doing worse. Keeping you both in our prayers!
