Ons there are never words that people can say that will make it any easier. I know this all too well. I hope that she has found peace and that you and your family will be strong in each other.
Love always








Peace
 
I am so sorry to hear this Onslaught, stay strong brother and my prayers go out to you and your family !!
 
His family is in my thoughts and prayers...Loosing a grandmother...I know the sadness and pain...:(
 
My condolences to you and your family in your time of need. Take comfort in the fact that your grandmother is now in His loving embrace, watching over you and yours.

Stay strong, brother.
 
I know I type a lot sometimes but I just wanted to say these things to everybody:

Thank you to everyone for your thoughts and prayers...they are much appreciated. I haven't been able to sleep for the past few days being at the hospital and all and not knowing how or when she was going to pass.

It was hard seeing my grandma pass right before my eyes yesterday morning; seeing CPR given for 25 minutes straight and no response, watching life leave her body and eyes and the flat-line, the medical staff unplugging everything, the medical staff crying and my mom in such pain for losing her parent.

Had to politely and awkwardly tell the dude with the fucking donuts and coffee to please leave the room and get out of my face and tell the other dude to stop cleaning the room while life was passing her body.

However, I do realize that this day of Thanksgiving was not only a day for my family to celebrate the tradition and ritual of family gathering but to celebrate and be thankful for my grandmother's life and not mourn her death. I'm still in shock and can't verbalize everything I'm feeling right now, it just all seems surreal...she was the matriarch of my family and a woman who helped raise me as well as teach me about life.

I my listening to Jay Electronica's "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind"...I'm not sure if it's the content of the song or the beat from the soundtrack of the music, but it has me feeling in the state of mind to write and reflect.

Shaved my head as a symbolic gesture of rebirth and honor towards my grandma's passing...

In your memory maam...you are loved...:yes:;)

Thank you everyone once again! :)

Been there.
Done that.
Times too many.
Lost my grands when I was young;
two at a time, blew my mind.
Lost my dad;
Still miss him, so sad.
But losing my brother;
a real blow to the fam, especially our mother.
Though of all these, one common thread: Time.
Time to live,
Time to die,
Time to love,
Time to Cry,
Time to deal; and
Time to heal.

Take your Time.

Wow...

I'm debating about going to see my gammie due to something between her and my mother and sister. I haven't seen her in over sixteen years. Hmmm... I guess you guys have given me something to be thankful for....
 
I am VERY sorry for your loss.

the best advice i can give u that u didn't ask for is to let it out, take ur moment(s) to breakdown and to mourn/celebrate

if this means anything to you, I am sure you will CONTINUE to make her proud

you and urs are in my thoughts and prayers

*hug*

Yo Onslaught,
Keep your head up. I could easily say I know how you feel. Lost my grandmother as well. 12 years ago today she went into the hospital and died a year later.

Last year I competed in a triathlon to memorialize her 10th year of passing. I wanted to raise 10k ... 1k for each year. I only raised 7k ... I missed my goal but I know she was proud of me for crossing that finish line and raising some money towards a cure for cancer.

I tell you this only to say continue to cherish, remember and honor her memory. Stay strong my brother.
 
Onslaught, I'm very sorry for your loss, I remember you mentioning her before. I hope you take this time to be thankful for all she's done and how much she means to you, while mourning her loss. We lost my great-grandmother around this time of year 4 years ago. Each year is hard. But memories keep their presence strong.
 
Rip, she is definitely in a better place, and at least you were able to spend time with her before she passed. My grandfather was sick and spent a few months in the hospital earlier this year. I spent a night at the hospital so my grandmother could sleep in her own bed, and i'm glad i got a chance to tell him I loved him. We as men sometimes don't say those words to people we love, but don't wait till it's too late. I was shaving him when he took his last breath, and that hit me real hard but i'm glad i was there. They all are in a better place and we will join them one day.
 
My condolences to you and yours Ons. May the Most High give her eternal rest & may her soul rest in peace. I hope you find strength and comfort from all the love being shown to you.
