A very, very sad time in my life. My grandmother died. She was 78. I have no clue how I am ever going to get over this vacancy in my life.

She had been asking me this last whole year when she was going to be "promoted to great-grandmother" and when I met her last, I didn't tell her. To be fair, its too early to be telling anyone, and I had no clue that this would happen.......

She had met with an accident, no real damage, but she had become really weak from the trauma. My telling her that I was into my 5th week would have delighted her. I should have told her, even if just to make her happy.

When I was a kid, there was nothing I loved more than going to visit my grandparents. Usually, the three of us kids would hide in the back seat of the car while my parents went to the door & alerted the grandparents of our arrival. Then my mother would proceed to inform them that the kids had all stayed at home. Of course Grandmother would act disappointed and that was our cue to pop up and wildly greet them.

It's a fact of life these days that so many marriages don't survive. Sad too, that often the grandparents are likely to be full time carers of their grandchildren after such breakup.

It doesn's seem fair.

I've struggled at love througout my life. Even now I still think of myself as a novice. I have to say that I have learned a few things since starting out. Alot of that has to be credited to many people in my life especially my Grandparents who were married for over half a century.

It's About Sacrifice
When I was about 15, my Grandfather had an aneurysm and ended up being paraplegic because it was on his heart and removing it damaged nearby tissue. For the next seven years of his life, my Grandmother gave up many of the activities she did just so that she could be near him. She got into the mobile age and got a pager and then a cell so that she could be in contact with him.
