Yesterday we lost another loved one. My gma Miller!
She was 94 years old and she lived a full life and we are all ok with her passing for she always dreamed of going home to see gpa again. Now they are both in heaven and once again together! Yet for us still here we will miss her but we will always have her memories!
We are all doing the task of the buriel process but its still a little rough. Her funeral is set for Thursday.
Its strange cuz thru my whole life, I have never lost so many loved ones as i have in the past year and combinding it while going thru the whole BC thing and dealing with my own immortality. For those of you who know me on here, know its been a very rough year for me and i have struggled with other family members passing away, especailly with Stacys death (my sis/cousin) Which i was really close to and still have issues with her death. I miss her dearly and i still find myself crying over her and its still very painful but im accepting it a little more with time.
Yet i will say that im ok, even with gma passing. Im learning that death is just part of life and we have to just make the best of our loved ones while we still have them!

    Peace!
    I'm sending condolences to you and your family, You sound like me jojo i lost a uncle in 2009 but i grew up with him like a brother in the same house well i think the stress of that contributed to the cancer but since i learned i had to give the worry to God because that's his job not ours and i got in the bible more I still love and miss my uncle and will never forget his passing but i understand more now,were just suppose to be here on this earth for just a while our real home is in heaven and your grandma and others are there healed and just enjoying there new life and new body just waiting on us, not that i want to go visit them anytime soon but knowing i will see them one day gives me peace.Just know i understand your hurt more than you know last year while i was fighting breast cancer i had two cousins to die from it so,i had to do a psychological evaluation and step back and let God handle his job cause it wasn't anything i could do.If you want peace of your sister/cousins death and Grandma just read Psalms 23 over and over for a few minutes.Sending prayers to you ~~~~~~Mollyz

    When someone is in your life for so many years
