Loss


We knew it was coming for a long time, but that doesn't make it easy.

My Granny died yesterday.

The doctors have been giving her a week to live for the last three years. She was a tough cookie and fought to stick it out.


Although we shared no DNA, I was closer to her than my biological grandparents.

I haven't quite wrapped my brain around it.

I'm heading to The 'Sip tomorrow for the services.
