A difficult time in August

This month didn't went according to plan. Despite the fact I've felt okay. It's been mostly pain free for me from arthritis. I've gone to scheduled doctor appointments and making sure things are okay. I understand it's far from over concerning arthritis. I have an appointment in the near future. I will make improvements physically. I've had a decent month in the beginning. My sisters are both doing okay as well as my nephew. My brother is doing okay. My mom went for a visit to Georgia around three weeks ago. As of this time she's living there with her friend. For some time she wanted to live there. It's not an issue with a change of scenery. We're in contact with mom through phone calling and facetime. She's planning for an extended visit to see us very soon. Meaning mom will be staying longer than a week. I was working on my website throughout the month. It's going well which is good. I didn't written a lot in August. I intend to do more next month. Although right now I am beyond sadden by the news of my grandmother. A few days ago my family and I were told she doesn't have too much time left. She is terminally ill with cancer. Yesterday afternoon we went to visit grandma inside the hospital. She was happy to see us. Mom also called through facetime. Grandma spoken to her on there. My brother called at the hospital as well. We stayed there for about forty five minutes. Grandma went into hospice care that same day. We will be visiting her again very soon. All that I could think about are the memories with her. One of my earliest memories with grandma was when I was four years old. My oldest sister and I would walk with her to Win Dixie supermarket. It was a great time shopping there with grandma. At the time we lived nearby there. I talked with grandma about many things. I always remembered grandma saying she loves all her children and grandchildren. Her and grandpa was always there for everyone. There are times when I find myself in disbelief. Everyone grieves differently which is understandable. It's an extremely difficult time for my family. I know that we will get through this eventually. For anyone who went through difficult times I hope you have strength as well. It's the thirty first of August and hoping for better days. Peace until next time.
