Missing.

nowpanic

Bad bad bad bad bad week.

The day Michael Jackson died my great Uncle Mike died. I could handle it, I tried to be positive, went to his viewing and sat with my Great Grandma, GG Grandma. I held her sweet wrinkly hands, looked into her then somber eyes and realized how very strong she is. Mike was her son, and she loved him with all her 87 year old heart.  Sitting there I knew it was a special moment.

Wednesday my mom texted me “Call your Dad, sad news.” I called him. He told me GG Grandma died today.

I’ve been an emotional wreck ever since. I want to hold everyone I know and love close because life seems so fragile. My GG Grandma was the strongest woman I knew, I think that’s why this has been so hard, because she seemed invincible 4 days ago.

Things will get better, the shock and stress of car accidents and losing family will fade, but I wont forget their sweet faces.  This has just been a bad week.
