I will miss you gramps :)

Today was unexpected.  Did not expect today to be the last day I saw my grandfather.  Or "Grumpy Gramps" as he liked to call himself.  I went to see him after work & he did not seem well at all.  His breathing wasn't right and I could not wake him up to eat.  He had spent several hours in the ER last night after a fall and had some physical therapy today.  I didn't know he was about to die but I knew something didn't feel right.  I then had a very spiritual experience.  I prayed out loud that God would comfort grandpa and heal him and help him.  Not a minute later I saw his chest stop moving and I knew he had taken his last breath.  I started to feel a little panicky and went to get a nurse.  They started CPR but he was already with the angels.  I felt a calm come over me that I can't even describe.  I knew Grandpa had his wish of being at peace.  I will miss him terribly but am happy he can finally rest.  I love you Grumpy Gramps

I am sorry for your loss. I just lost my grandmother a few weeks ago and I am still in shock. It is so surreal to have someone be around your whole life and then just be...gone.

My thoughts are with you.
