Some thoughts for my grandma

My grandma has been having a really rough time with some pain, and was in the emergency room yesterday.  While she doesn't need to be hospitalized at this time, she has been moved into the rehab unit of the nursing home for now.  We expect that she will move to assisted living after leaving rehab.

My grandmother is 90 years old.  I know that she isn't going to live forever, and that breaks my heart.  She is one of the most amazing women I've ever known.  Her emotional fortitude and strength is second to none.  She raised an amazing man in my father, and I can't even imagine how her heart broke as he was buried, not to mention all those years of watching him suffer.

It will break my heart when she is gone, and even just thinking about it brings me to tears.  Her passing will have a profound impact on me in so many ways, and I absolutely hate to think about it.  As we are going through this though, I am realizing there is something even worse, and that is having her suffer.  I hate, hate, hate, that she is in significant pain right now.  The doctors don't think anything major is wrong, but I want her out of pain!

I've been praying a lot today.  Her passing is not imminent by any means.  I just want her to be comfortable.
