my Grandpa is in the hospital. He's got a triple anarism(however you spell that) in his aorta and stomach, so the only solution is an open heart surgery, with the odds not in his favor.
This is the hardest part for me because as I sit here and realize that he may not be with me tomorrow I can't help but feel extreme sadness. I think of all the times he will miss in my life if things don't work out. He'll miss my graduation from college, my wedding, my first kid. As the tears are running down, I then think of all the happy memories we have shared. How we connected through basketball, let me tell you my Grandpa is not the easiest man to deal with he is extremely a 1930's type man, discriminatory, women belong in the kitchen attitude. But he is all I have. I love him and as much as he grates on my beliefs with his I realize how much he makes me smile, or how anything Irish reminds me of his intense pride of his homeland. He is extremely special to me and I love him with all my heart that's why it's so hard for me.
I know I'm not a church going person, but I guess in times like these they make you realize how nice it is to believe in something, so here comes the most amazing part of this ordeal. I will be attending church on Sunday.
God,
If you could, would you please spare my Grandpa. I would really enjoy a few more years with him. He is the only one I have left so please let him enjoy a few more years, but if this is not in your plans then let him go peacefully with as little pain as possible that's all I'm asking. Thank you.
Amen.
This is what I have just read in one of my friend's journal. I am asking for you to help me and pray for her and her grandfather. She's a great girl and really needs some help now. Thank you all and god bless.
