Who said you're gone...
when you're in my heart, head, soul, etc...

Demi-Leigh

Me and the family had just came back from liverpool, from a wedding, and I went to visit my grandmother in hospital at 6-8, she was ill, very... a huge mask around her, I could not talk to her, she bobbed her tongue out, and squeezed my hand tight, hugged me... me and my mother went down stairs for a bit, we came back up to see my grandmother taking off the mask, we told her it was bad and it was saving her! So, she kept it on, we then said goodbye..... I remember her last words 'I love you' and a hug... she then just fell straight asleep.

As I got home, it was dark and we was very exited for the holiday the next day, we was meant to be going to Greece, oh, it was a great time to think about, my Nan promised she wouldn't leave us while we're on holiday, she keeps promises, she does... so, I was just getting my laptop packed up, then, 22:30, we received a phone call that she was not responding to the treatment, my mother jumped in the car, and puck up her sister and some other people as soon as... by the time they got there, she went.. 22:37, Sunday, fathers day....

My grandfather must have had a horrible day, fathers day too... I was hurt badly, my dad had to tell me, I screamed and cried and waled, but I was really upset, everything was like a story, but with a bad ending, I went straight to the hospital, saw her asleep, she was smiling in that sleep, she was still a bit warm, I tried to hold my tears back, but it was hard... We cancelled our holiday (But luckily re-booked it now) and we put verses in the Express and Star.

My Nan was certainly my world... I LOVE HER. I know she's not gone, because I have her blood, she had mine, she's in my brain, heart, soul, BODY, shes my guardian angel. I find it hard to cry, all remains happy memories, and no regrets... Do I love her and thank her... Though, I do cry sometimes... because I can't re-live those memories with her, but 15 years of pain.. She was a fighter. I love her, no matter WHAT!
