She died because she was a heavy smoker and she was 76 years old. I loved her to peices and when she died I had two weeks off from school to get over it. I didn't get over it though and all my friends were supportive except for one who told me to get over it because lifes too short.

I felt a bit distant for the first couple of months but although the strong sadness has gone I still think about her alot. I think my dad was the worst affected because she died on his birthday (10th dec) and we try to celibrate the event but It's hard to be as happy as we should be. This X-mas we're gonna toast to grandma because It would be cool for her to know That we still love her.

I'm crying now so Im gonna stop. thnx for listening

I <3 you grandma!

Remember that everything happens for a reason!

"Seeing death as the end of life is like seeing the horizon as the end of the ocean."

"Some are able to release grief far more quickly than others. However long it takes, it is always the re-connection with the power of the heart that moves you past grief. When the heart is enlivened again, it feels like the sun coming out after a week of rainy days. There is hope in the heart that chases the clouds away. Hope is a higher heart frequency and as you begin to reconnect with your heart, hope is waiting to show you new possibilities and arrest the downward spiral of grief and loneliness. It becomes a matter of how soon you want the sun to shine. Listening to the still, small voice in your heart will make hope into a reality." [-Sara Paddison]
