My heart goes out to you. Your Grandmother sounds like a wonderful person. I lost my Mom in March. We had only put her in Hospice 2 hours when she passed peacefully. Hospice is so helpful.

Tammy,
You and I are both going through the exact thing right now!!! My Grandmother is 86 and she was flown to Duke Medical in Raleigh, NC from Asheville, NC this week. (A five hour drive away from all the people who love her. Lots of my family drove the 5 hours to be with her and are staying in a hotel)
Your Grandmother sounds so much like my Grandmother!!!
Sounds like your Grandmother is very LOVED!!! I will be praying for you, your Grandmother and your family!!! Hospice is wonderful...I am glad they are there for your Grandmother!!!!
Keep us posted!!!

Tammy and Rhonda. My prayers go out to both of your and your familes.

Tammy,
How is your Grandmother today? Just thinking of you and your family!!!

Thank you!!!!

Ahh, Tammy prayers are with you my dear...I know what you are going through as we are also having to face this in my family these past couple years....it's hard to loose those that are so close to you and loved so deeply..just know that you and your family are added to my prayer list...we will be praying for you each an every day... God Bless :hands: :hands

Thank you!
 

I truly appreciate your prayers and your kind words. We spent time at the nursing home all weekend...only came home to sleep. My grandma had her eyes open a lot on Friday,even held my hand (SUPER) tight! :) I would go to change hands and she wouldn't let go and she would just look up at me and stare straight into my eyes. I knew that was her way of telling me that she wasn't ready to let me go. She did the same thing with my cousins that day. Then, on Saturday, she was nonresponsive....didn't open her eyes but maybe a couple of times. My aunt and my mom are still offering her things to drink. She will occasionally take some water, ice cream and an Ensure. Hospice said that with the way that she is not eating, she is expected to live a day to 2 weeks. It's so hard to say goodbye to her,but I know that she is tired and has fought many battles in her 86 years. My mom spent the night with her and she said that my grandma was awake a lot of the night....she lays there staring at the ceiling. Since she is no longer able to really speak,my mom said that she did all of the talking for both of them. :) My mom said, "Mommy (yes she still calls her this)...."Mommy, I would like for you to say hello to everyone for me....how lucky that you will get to see their faces once again." My grandma then stopped staring at the ceiling and looked right into my mom's eyes. My mom said that she knew that was her way of telling her that she would. When my mom told me this,I started to cry but then quickly realized what a blessing that she will get to see all of our loved ones that have passed. She seems to be ready,it's those of us that are left behind that have to mourn. I would like to ask you all to still pray that her passing is painless and that my family will heal quickly....

Thanks again~
Tammy

I just wanted to thank you all again....your prayers mean a lot to me. My grandma passed away earlier this morning. She was sleeping peacefully as it happened and I am thankful that she felt no pain. She is now with all of her loved ones that were waiting her and I am happy for my grandma Jo.....yes,it hurts like crazy for those of us left behind but I know she is happy now.

Thanks again to everyone~

So sorry to read this thread, and sorry about your loss. I know your grandma is watching over you all.

Yes it is so dreadful for families that are left behind to come to grips with a loss like this. Of some one so loved and precious.

Thinking and feeling your pain..
