I came home tonight, a little ebfore 7, to find a bunch of cars parked in front of my house. So, I knew something was up. My sister, my brother, and my uncle and their respe4ctive spouses were over, having dinner when I walked in.

Mom didn't call me since she didn't want to upset/worry me, but Grandma took a turn for the worse today. The doctors said 24-48 hours, max.

I know we've been expecting this for a while now, but still, the shock is there. The rest of them said I looked white as a ghost, which while I'm normally pale, is really not usual for me.

As far as I know, most of the arrangements have been made since today, and she's sleeping, now. She can hear us still, that I've been told, and I spent time today saying my goodbyes. But, God, it's not easy. Why is nothing ever easy anymore?

I've already decided to go to work tomorrow, if there's no change by the time I wake up. Mom and Dad's suggestion, because if I just stay around here I'll go stir crazy. I think it's a good idea, and gives me another chance to give my boss the heads-up.

So, I might be sporadic online-wise over the next few days, while things happen and we deal with them.

*hugs* There are really no words to say in time like this that can really help, it is hard, I've seen it happen before years ago with several members of my family, my cousin more specifically. You've said your goodbyes, it is letting go in our minds and hearts that is difficult, and one never really forgets them. But, it is a first step in letting go. Take your time, rest, and see what happens. We'll still be around here when you need us, so don't worry about taking time off being online... *hugs*
