I probably won’t be around for a while. Maybe a week, maybe more. I don’t know. I don’t really know where my head is right now.
I’ve written about my grandmother and her struggle with Alzheimer’s. Aside from my parents, my grandmother was probably the most supportive person in my life. Anything I ever wanted to do, she told me I could do. When I wanted to start working as a substitute and I didn’t have the money for background checks and fingerprints, she gave it to me. She was just always there for me, so the last few months as her Alzheimer’s got worse was horrible.
She passed away yesterday morning.
I don’t even have the luxury of being able to stop and process. I’m finishing up my semester, I have student teaching to finish, papers to write. Assignments. I have to go to work tomorrow. I have two observations left or I can’t get my license. This probably won’t even hit me until we celebrate Mother’s Day and she’s not there. My birthday next month, and her not being there. My nephew’s birthday. My niece’s. Christmas. God. All the moments she was a part of, and we didn’t know it would be the last time.
So I just wanted to say I’m disappearing for a while. It might just be a few days, I just don’t know. I didn’t want to disappear without saying something.

Melissa, I’m so sorry to hear of your Grandmother’s passing. I’m also sending hugs to you. Your Grandmother will be part of you always, but you are right, all of the first occasions without her there will be hard. Remember the love, because that will always be in your heart.
May God be with you and comfort you in your trials, you are His daughter and he loves you

I’m so sorry to hear about your grandmother. My grandfather passed away several years ago – he was 91 and had lived a long, full life but the last few years before he died he was suffering from dime tiva. was heartbreaking to witness. I’m so sorry for your loss.
