grandma edna part 2

this week eman is out of town doing some training for work, so i decided to take advantage and come up to my parents house with the boys.  they always want to see their grammy and papa, and this was a great opportunity.  plus, it was a chance to see grandma one last time before she goes home to be with the Lord.

this morning, grandma's bath lady came to clean her up and help with bathroom duties.  as it turns out, this was too much for grandma.  the nurse came a bit later and helped my mom get grandma back into bed but was unable to rouse grandma.  it was very strange to see her laying helplessly, heart barely beating.  for a minute, the monitor wasnt beeping at all, and we all stood there just waiting..  was she dead?  the nurse repositioned the monitor on grandma's finger and it came back.  so bazaar.  my mom commented how strange our bodies are - so fragile yet able to rally when it is not yet time to be done.  truely, our Lord knew what He was doing when creating us.  Our bodies are an amazing interconnected web.  

i am so thankful that grandma is saved and will be going to heaven.  as of know, she is not in any pain.  i pray that she will continue to sleep and will have a peaceful passing.

well, as i sit here, i can hear her talking to herself.. apparently it is not her time to go
