Grandad

When I attended my grandmother's funeral my grandfather sat in his wheelchair by her open grave and said "Goodbye Dora, I'll see you soon". Heartbreakingly for us, but happily for him, today I stood beside the open grave of my grandfather to say goodbye to him.

Loosing one grandparent was very hard. Loosing both of them has hurt so much. I don't feel much like myself at the moment. But I suppose that's normal, whatever normal is.

I'm glad he's with Jesus. I'm glad he's with my grandmother. But there's so much I wish that I could have said and done more. Maybe it's always like that when you loose someone you love.

For now I think it's just time to be quiet, at least that's how I feel.
