For gram, her favorite band.

Sadly, another update.
If you've been reading these, you may know why.
My 97 year old grandma fell and that caused her to break her arm... That was several days ago. Gram also had 2 Strokes, a Heart Attack and sprained her leg.
These pictures left to right, are of:

Gram & friend Kay

Now, gram (Alice) is at home for her possible final days. It's hospice care.
The hospital was taking years away. They did nothing for her broken arm.
Since gram is gladly at home, I'm no doubt going to be busy. There are three of us - plus the nurse that comes for 2 hrs a day.

There will also be immense emotions. And no doubt grieving. So I'm not entirely sure how I'll be handling it.
Yes, I've had the urge to write. Can I bring myself to do so? .... Not quite.
All I ask of you is - please don't rush me to update, and feel free to uplift my spirits.
I've had enough of "I'm sorry you have to go through this..." etc.
everyone is acting like it's a funeral, already.
(By "everyone" I mean my "friends" who wanted to be updated. They were making me miserable. I left Facebook for the time being. None were saying positive things.)

Anyway, I may be absent. I may not. Right now, I have the ears of a fox. (Or elf.) Keeping an ear out for pained noises, no snoring...etc. her room is across from ours and I'll be honest, I'm going to be terrified when she stops breathing. I don't think I'll enter her room ever again.

Right now, she's sedated. Snoring, groaning. Pain meds every hour. (And were expecting puppies in September on a lighter note.)
She can't get out of bed, gram will never walk again... Never see the lake, the flowers... Watch tv. It's just, reality setting in. At least we can put reminders of her life around her! Such as pictures (especially of family), my wedding dress...etc.

Again, I ask of you: please let me take my time in updating. I'll need to help gram & cry LOTS. And that, isn't exactly the best time to update. When my emotions are on a roller coaster ride.

If you wish to comment or PM me, feel free.

I'll also likely be having Lots of Seizures as this is a stressful situation.
Any prayers are welcome! 🙏🏻
