Point form notes - blogging in short form

My grandmother has been diagnosed with terminal brain cancer, and cancer on her spine.

In some ways it is hard to see my grandmother wasting away. It also isn't as painful as I thought it might be. I know that when she has died I'll still get to be with her when I get to heaven. She'll be complete again. We'll get to sing together and laugh and walk.

The hardest part is seeing my grandfather struggle while pretending to hold it all together. to see him unable to admit that he needs some help.

I'm sad my grandmother might not be at my sisters wedding.

I'm sad that my son wont be able to remember time he has spent with her.

As a family we spent Sunday fasting and praying. It was something we had never done together and it kind of challenged me to think more seriously about my focus and where my heart is looking.

  1. Hey Rae, Sorry to hear about your grandma! My granddad passed away this past year and it was SO comforting to know that he is now in Heaven. Hang in there! Hugs!
