It hurts but there is some comfort there

Knowing that Nana T is out of the body that broke her down mentally and physically makes the blow a little more easy. It is never easy to loose a loved and cherished one. Though I find comfort and relish in the fact that she lived her live fully. It is a testament to say she was never really sick in her live until the dementia, muscular degeneration , and ALZ set in big time. That women ate rappi greens with hunks of garlic.....she loved cooking with hunks of garlic...the stuffed chockies as she would say had white slices that were very visible. I would never eat them stuffed just steamed. Now I too LOVE garlic. I guess it does ward off the bad. She loved her many many cups of tea, black of course.
I lay in bed or daydream of the many things we did through the years. It helps knowing there are many events in the treasure chest of life that can be looked back on. That is worth any amount of money out there. I so do treasure that. Yesterday at the bear barn there were two "God winks" as they are called with Nanas involved. I guess that was her telling me everything is ok. : ) I love you Nana T and you will always be with me.

Everything you said is true. The last several years were so hard on both you and Nana...to know that she is free from pain and sickness is a comfort; to know she is not here for you to see and talk to and hold is always a sadness. You are so much of who you are because of Nana T. You make her proud every day. xo <3
