i am very sorry about your nana and it is hard. i just went through this but it was with a 12 year old boy and weather they are 9 or 90 it is still diffacult. you have all of those loving memories of her and those things cannot be taken away from you . just think you will always have a gardian angel watching over you and who better than your nana. i will keep you in my prayers :(

I'm not great at dealing with these things, but here's my two cents.

I'm really sorry to hear about this. Having somebody in the family pass away is never easy for anybody. If anybody in my family even moves away or goes on a long vacation, I have a hard time getting over the fact that I won't see them for a long time. Of course, death is a totally different thing. I have no idea what you are feeling or how you are taking this, but if it were me that were losing my grandma or somebody else, I would get the family together and try and spend as much time as I could with her. She should be shown what a good job she did raising a family and of what a good life she has lead.

That's advice from a 15 year old kid, so I don't really know what I'm talking about, but those are my thoughts.

That's just a number, Mike and obviously you are wise beyond those years. That's very good advice, thank you. We are trying to see her as much as possible and let her know that she does have a special family that is close.
