I knew it would be hard, but I never imagined my heart would actually hurt so much that I could grasp the true concept of "heartbroken". It is like standing on one side of a fence and trying to explain to someone what the view is like, but until they actually make it to the other side of the fence and see the view for themselves, they cannot begin to imagine what it is like to lose someone so dear to them.
Grandma, you were my greatest cheerleader, my best confidant, and my mother and my father all wrapped up into one person.
I don't know how to cope with this pain. My mind tells me all the right things, but my heart isn't cooperating. People try to say comforting things... and I know they are trying to help... but it doesn't help to hear all about what a wonderful long life you had. Yes... it was a blessing.. and yes... I am thankful to have had you for so long... and yes... I AM SELFISH for crying because your quality of life was not there anymore... but I miss you so much.
Grandma... I miss you.
I love you 10,000 bushels.
Mary
