My Lifelines

[Chrissy86]

I had lost both of my Grandparents roughly 7 months ago and 7 weeks apart from eachother. My situation is a little different, my grandparents were my parents, best friends and so much more. They took care of me starting at a very young age and continued to do so in adulthood. They were my lifelines. My go-to people. My everything.

My Grandma and Grandpa were both very young at heart. My Grandmother, Lorraine, was a beautiful woman. Inside and out. She didn't look anything like her age and trust me, she loved every compliment that came her way! Everywhere we went, everyone thought she was my mother. Her and I had a bond that words can't even describe. She wasn't just my Grandmother, she was truly my best friend. My Grandpa, Stan, had an awesome sense of humor! Him and I would always poke fun at eachother and sometimes get on eachothers nerves. He taught me all the basics in life. How to tie my shoes, ride a bike, swim, drive a car. He was a sensational man. I was so truly blessed to have ever had them in my life at all.

Losing them, I lost part of myself that I will never get back. My heart is truly broken and my faith very shaken. 7 months later I find myself angry, sad, and always asking the number one question... WHY?????? Hopefully in time, I will learn how do deal with this better and try to move on from all my greif and sorrow. As of now, I find that increadibly hard to even do
