Dear grandma,

I’m sorry that I wasn’t a better granddaughter. I wish I could have made the time to sit down with you and talk whenever you were over at our house instead of locking up myself in my room and leaving you in the lounge room alone.

I regret it so much, I feel as if I have neglected you. Every chance I had that I could have used to talk to you I always avoided. I kept myself busy doing things I could have done when you went back home. Now I will never get the chance to be a better granddaughter since you are now on your way to heaven.

I could have asked you more about the stories you told me instead of just trying to end the interaction fast. I wish I could have been more understanding when you constantly asked me what my name was again rather than becoming impatient and annoyed every time.

I’m sorry, I wasn’t able to do better. I’m sorry if you ever felt lonely and unappreciated because of me.

I’m sorry.
