I took a sad goodbye today


Kristin,

You have written an eloquent eulogy for your grandfather. I too am a grandfather – 70 years old now. So, I pray to God that my grandchildren too should write about me like you have written about yours.

I had to take a sad goodbye today. I woke up to the message that my grandad was dead. It wasn’t coming like a big suprise, he was 90 years old, had not eat, just been sleeping the last days.

He had always a comment ready, and he kept his humor until the last days. But he was tired, and the body was not with him anymore. He spent his last year or two at a nursinghome, were he was very good taken care of.

It’s very sad and empty now, but in a natural way. There are a few things everyone have to go through, to be born, and to die. It is the circle of life. I read this a few months ago…
