my grandmother passed away
26
Wed, 03-19-2008 - 10:30am

My grandmother got put in the hospital this morning. They are keeping her on a respirator until the family can get there. She will not last long.

I know if she does pass before the days end. her funeral will be held this weekend. My father does not have a whole lot of say so........ my problem is this yes my grandmother lived a full life and bless her........ but she has only one Great granddaughter, Jackie and she is close to her. How can a funeral take place and Jackie not be able to say goodbye? that is going to devastate my dd. Is this wrong to be so upset? I just dont know what to do. I have this feeling that Jackie is going to be really upset that she did not get to say goodbye. thanks for listing.

Thanks Laura.
I have no idea what they might tell jackie if anything. I certainly would expect more than what they offer. But since its "his time" who knows. I am going to try and i am going to fight as much as i can. But in the end i know that answer. I do have a few things up my sleeve that I can pull. and will. I just hate the fact that i have no way of making him allow her to go. I will try hard though.

Oh Deanna, I am so sorry for you and your family, and sorry that Jackie will likely miss the funeral.
