My Grandmother Is Dying.

Normally this would be only semi-emo, but I won't be able to reach her location before she dies (michigan) and she is my last living grandparent.

I am not religious, but she is, so I ask everyone here to wish her the best in the afterlife, or reincarnation, or valhalla, or wherever you believe she will be going as stated by your personal value system.





Also, turn this into a spam thread and die.

That is all.

    I'll hope my belief system is wrong in this case, I'd love to say something useful but I can't, nor can I stand cliches and so I'll simply leave it at...

    She will be taken away by a Valkyrie where she shall feast and fight for eternity! All her slain enemies will stand as her servants! Much quaffing of tea shall be had!

    Old people passing on is no sad event. Death comes to all, the later the better.

    Don't be sad redford, just remember the time you spent with her and cherish the memories. Terry Pratchett says people aren't really dead until the ripples in the world they caused have faded away. By remembering her, you keep her alive.

    Remember Redford- be glad for those of whome we love who hath passed beyond this life of toil and torment. For then shall she be freed of all earthly wants and pangs, hunger and strife, and shall she then find peace with herself, and her God.

    I wish her, and you, the best of luck in these times.

    Everyone's already said it fairly eloquently, so I'll just say I hope it passes as easily as it can.

    Death is just the last cycle of life. Don't get down about it just remember your grandmother for who she is and what she stood for in your life. You don't need to be with your grandmother as she dies, nor will it do you any good.

    Well thats nice telling Redford whats best for him Thaldarin, please elaborate why.

    I was with my grandma when she died, and to this day its something i consider very precious. It made her very happy, cause that was her dying wish, to have the family around her when the time came.

    Try and make the best out of it Red, my thoughts go with ya.

    that's not nice at all. I'm with you too redford, be strong. I was never with my grandfather when he died. Manly due to the fact i was in America,and he was in Korea. I hope you do get there in time, despite what you said. My best wishes are with her. She will only truly die when you forget her, so always remember that you *hopefully* loved her and she *hopefully* loved you. Best wishes. T_T
