30 day letter challenge~
day eleven- letter to a deceased person
Dear Grandma,
It was January 27th, 2008. One of the worst days of my life. The day you left me. I never even got a chance to explain how much you mean to me. If I had ten more minutes with you, I swear I could've made them worthwhile. Words cannot even come close to describing how much I miss you. You were always there for me when I needed you. Anytime I e v e r wanted something, you would give me money and tell me to go have fun. I miss those days so much. Yes, I know you're in a better place as we speak, but it kills me to think about the day you passed away. I remember that day like it was yesterday and it scares me how I remember it so thoroughly. You were lying on your bed with a nurse next to you. Although you looked sicker then ever, you were stil absolutely stunning. It doesn't matter if you had no hair from chemo therapy, or you had bags under your eyes from lack of sleep, I still saw my beatiful grandma. When I looked into your eyes, I still remember the look so clearly, You asked me to come closer, to look me in the eyes and when I did you said to me, "I'll always love you." Just to hear those words come out of your mouth was life changing. Even now, 3 whole years later, I still cry about you once and a while when I truly think about you. It's so depressing to think about all of our memories, but it helps to write these kinds of things. I love you so much with all my heart and more. Whether your physically in my life or not, I know I will always have you. Rest peacefully, I will remember you forever~
Love always and forever,
Kristin
