It's been a rough few days...

My Grandma is still hanging in there although it seems she is worse each time I see her. The doctor has said twice now that she would pass "today or tomorrow", but she has been hanging on for 4 days now. I am not sure what she's waiting for, but it seems as though she is waiting for something before she lets go.

The waiting is hell on us. We've all been to see her. It's hard to sit there next to her, holding her hand, watching her, saying good bye and crying day after day. Every time the phone rings we jump, because this time it could be THE CALL.

I hope that she will pass peacefully and painlessly. I hope that those of us she leaves behind will be able to be strong and face the loss.
