Most of you know by now of the passing of my Grandpa Potter. It all happenned so fast. I got back from the conference Rene has been working on and planning for three years on Wednesday. I will post more about that later.
I went to work on Thursday morning and came home to hear the news that Grandpa might have a week or two. Within a couple of hours the hospice doctor had come and told us as clearly and as kindly as she could that he probably only had hours to days to live.
We started giving him morphine at that point every hour. He was gone 12 hours later.
I will miss my Grandpa but it is good to know he is in a better place and that he isn't sufferring any more. The last 6 months or so have been increasinly more difficult for him and my dad. I am thankful that God took him quickly and with little pain.
And life does go on because I start school this week and have to work tommorow. There is little time to sit and just reflect. Mostly I would ask for that for my family space and time to mourn and grieve. The rememberance time will be on Thursday.
