I didn't go to school on the 20th because I hadn't been well at all over the past week or so and I had a math test. I asked my mum if I could skip it cos I wouldn't be able to concentrate and I'd get a bad grade so I just didn't go in. I spent the day on the sofa watching TV as my mum went to work. That's pretty much all that went on that day... And then Friday 22nd came along.

My grandma was complaining she felt ill so my mum went with my granny to take her to the hospital and that's where they found out she had a few hours to live. She had many problems like : she developed dementia, she had too much Carbon Dioxide circulating her body and she also had Pulmonary Fibrosis.
Pulmonary Fibrosis doesn't have a cure so we knew she was going to go soon.

Ever since my grandad went, we kind of expected her to go within  the year because she just started going downhill.

I went to see my grandma in the hospital. My aunt, uncle, sister, brother, mum, granny and step-grandad (Gerald) was there too. Everyone eventually went but I refused to go, I wanted to be there for her when she went so I stayed at the hospital overnight and she was still alive by morning. In fact she lived until Tuesday the 26th which is a lot longer than expected. My granny and mum stayed there overnight, most nights and on the 25th they told her that they were going to go home because they missed the rest of the family and they were knackered. She kept telling them that she didn't want to be alone and she was scared... She also said she was going to go see grandad in the morning but they took nothing of it. She then passed away at 5:50 am and my mum and granny just burst out into a flood of tears. They regretted not staying but they said their goodbyes and everything which calmed them a little bit.

I woke up to the news that she had passed and it just didn't hit me that she had passed away. I felt absolutely fine which made me feel so guilty because everyone was crying on and off. I didn't wanna spend all day moping around the house so I went to school and just shrugged it off, loads of my friends told me that I shouldn't have come in and that I should just go home but I honestly didn't want to. I did go to my form tutor though and just sat n spoke with her for a little while.

I went home at the end of the school day and that's it if I'm being honest
