a bittersweet trip

Gemini Cricket · 01-09-2008, 12:02 AM

I'm leaving tomorrow for Honolulu.
I'm jumping on a plane to be with my grandma.
The woman that raised me is not going to be around very much longer.
She has pneumonia and a collapsed lung.
She's at the hospital and they said she isn't doing well.
I'm dropping everything for now and going home where I feel I can be of some help and comfort.
I had a good 'ol cry with NA earlier but I'm doing much better.
A quick zip of a credit card and I'm off to Hawai'i tomorrow afternoon.
I would rather visit her now instead of at her funeral.
I feel that if I don't go, I'll regret it.

I'm throwing sh!t in a large duffle bag now. I have no idea what I'm packing...

I can't even start to tell you how wonderful my grandmother is.

Aloha, Nana.
