Broken But Not Broken (COMPLETE)

Age

So, it's quite difficult to write about this, but I feel like I should.

Right now, it is quite a difficult time for one side of my family. My grandma is 84-85 and she's fading away, yes, she's starting to lose memory, her bones are like glass, she's bruised because she's fallen a lot of times, sometimes she falls normally, but the last time she fell, she fell from the stairs, she got a broken bone and a big bruces on her face. 

I don't want to see everyone around me crumble because of that. For example, my mom, she's really going through hell because of that, she's crumbling slowly. She tries to be strong, but I can see in her eyes that she's falling apart. She cries and she's afraid. Of course, anyone would be afraid to lose their mothers, specially if you're the youngest child and have been really close to her. She admires her mom, she loves her, and she doesn't want her to die. Hell, I don't want her to leave us, yes, she wasn't the best mother, or the best grandma, or the best mother in law, but everyone cares about her, even if she doesn't see that. I don't want people to suffer, I don't want them to fear for her, I don't want them to crumble. 

I know that death is something people are scared of, but they shouldn't, why? Because it is a natural thing that happens to everyone, I believe that we have to embrace death as an old friend and when our time is here, it's here.

Death takes away everyone we love, but then it takes us. So, why should we fear?
