nan was the sweetest,kindest person you could ever know.it was me who was lucky to have had a nan like her.i saw nan every single day.
nan had a stroke in jan 08,nearly 12 hours had passed b4 anyone called me,as soon as i saw her i knew.nan had lost her daughter less than a year b4 to cancer,breaking her heart.nan changed from that day,the light had gone out.
nan spent months in hospital,she had another 2 strokes the worst taking speach altogether,and i was also told she too had cancer.losing mum the year b4,how and why could nan have it too,why did she have too suffer more,damian and i decided not to tell her she had cancer,for nan was so confused,she belived i was my mum at times,so fighting hard,we got her home to us.where she stayed for two whole weeks.
in two weeks i had MY NAN.nan ate more,and watched films,and saw her gr8 granchildrren evey single day.
she would even fight the boys for there icecreams!
her last night damian and i slept on her bed,and woke up to damians birthday.nan died at 10am with damian and i beside her.finally free of the pain,the cancer and like mum free from the hell they had on earth.
nan was where she wanted to be...with my mum
but they left me behind.
i love you nan god night god bless lots x x x
