    That’s a rough visit, but you’ll never regret the time you spend with her now. Glad you had a safe trip. We were out of town but you know you’re always welcome to stay at our place.

    It’s really hard to watch a grand parent or parent in that state. I’m kind of in the same situations with my grandma. she doesn’t recognize me anymore though. Something we all have to go through but really hard.

      I’m so sorry. That is really hard. My dad visits every few days and he said that *most* of the time she recognizes him. But I can see where she’d get confused sometimes too. 🙁 Sorry to hear about your grandma.

    I am glad you got to visit your grandmother. I got a call when my grandmother collapsed and I drove 13 hours to get to the hospital to see her because they were afraid she wouldn’t hang on. I made it there before she passed, but I remember the very mundane phone call I had with her a couple weeks before, just chit chatting. I had no idea that would be the last time we actually talked.

    Hugs.

      Aw I am so sorry to hear that Lori. How heartbreaking. I’m glad you were able to see her one last time.
