hospice

Yesterday Jeff's Grandma went under hospice care. Oma was 91 when Jeff and I married and has just turned 101; Her life since I've known her has been slowly getting smaller and our visits fewer due to health issues. Her poor body is just tired.

No matter how old someone is, I've found, it still doesn't take away the sadness. The family we've known since the minute we were born, the staples at birthday parties and holidays, the matriarchs and patriarchs of the family...

My prayers are with Oma today, I wish her peace and hope she knows her family is with her as she gets ready to see Carl again.
