This breaks my heart into pieces

Kendra

Two days ago I got a frantic call from my mom saying I had to go to my grandparents house because she thought my grandma was having a stroke. I met the paramedics and the ambulance at their home where I got everything she needed for the hospital. I was on the phone with my mom who was asking which hospital she was going to, which I told her. The very little words she could say, she was screaming my name while she was on the stretcher. All I could tell her was my mom was going to meet her there because I couldn't go with her in the ambulance. A little while later, I went and got my grandpa and brought him to my house to stay. He was making light of the subject and never once asked how she was (I was on the phone with my mom a lot that day). She's only allowed 1 person per day for visits because of covid. My mom has been up there every day as expected and she keeps asking about me. I went to visit her today and just about fell apart seeing her. Yesterday, we did a zoom meeting and all was good. Today, she is very tired. She is declining. She held my hand as she slept for almost the whole 2 hours I was there. She really only says yeah and no but I did get her to eat a little. She told me I could go when I wanted because she was tired.

This is her holding my hand tight as she slept. I couldn't actually hold her hand because her IV was in that hand. I sat there for two hours with her just telling her how much I loved her and all the stuff she has done for me in my life. How amazing and strong she was to put up with the stuff she has put up with and losing her son (my uncle) when he was just 22 years young.

I combed her hair and told her how beautiful she was she said "yeah". This woman right here is the most amazing woman in the world. Please pray for my grandma. I pray that she recovers from the stroke but I'm also preparing for the worst. Ugh, my heart is broken into piece but I don't want her to suffer anymore or suffer from the monster taking over her mind (dementia) or the pain from this stroke. 😔
