As I'm getting undressed and dressed I start to talk to my granddad. I remember a little bit of what I said.. "I hope today wasn't my last time seeing you especially not like this!! I didn't like seeing you like that! But then again I NEVER liked seeing you in those hospital beds either. I guess I'm kind of glad you're no longer suffering. I'm so sorry you had to leave me so soon. I'm not even old enough yet to completely understand what's happening. I think that's what's really getting me. My heart only wants you granddaddy. I'll never forget all the times you saved me from getting whooped. You would say" "Don't whoop her Faith!" (I continued to say to my granddad) "I'll always remember that I'll also always remember all the candy you use to give me. I'll never forget the purple radio you got me, the Betty Boop purses you got me, the purple Care Bear or any of the other things you got me. I'll always hold on to the Care Bear if nothing else. I love you so much you will be in my heart forever."
