Guest guest Posted December 5, 2004 Report Share Posted December 5, 2004 Thanks, Cindi. Grandma would love to know that everything that she went through may be helping someone else. She was a very special, very strong lady. I always knew it, but she was always just Grandma to me. It's been since she's been gone that I've really realized and understood it. She also had Alzheimer's the last few years before she died so it had been quite a while since I'd been able to have a meaningful conversation with her. Strangely, I've felt a very strong connection with her since she died -- more so even than when she was alive. I guess due to my own health problems and then learning more about hers. She covered very well so altho we knew about them, we didn't know how bad it was at times. Probably also due to me maturing and being able to see her as a whole person -- not just a Grandma. Wish I could have seen that sooner. She was certainly an inspiring person.
