Today is not a good day

So this morning when Amy woke an hour earlier than normal, you could hear me exclaiming, ‘today is not going to be a good day’.

When the phone rang at 7.30am and it was Mum who had been called into the hospital with Nan at 4am, again I said ‘today is not going to be a good day’

When Mum rang again at 9am to tell me that the doctor thought that today would be Nan’s last day with us. Again, ‘today is not going to be a good day.’

A phone call to Nathan later ‘I need you; come home’ and I was in the shower with Amy, mind running 100 kph (much faster than my body was running I should add).

We got ready at the speed of light and we were ready to walk out of the door as Nathan got home. 40 minutes later, I’m sitting in a hospital room with her.

So.

Today is not a good day.

It’s been 12 months exactly since Nan was diagnosed with Lung Cancer.

Thoughts appreciated.

    Today is not a good day. It’s a day to get through and perhaps the last time to send all of your best and fiercist love vibes to your Nana. Be with her, love her and help her on her way, away from you physically, but always in your heart.
