Last night my great aunt Helen passed away. She is the oldest of 10 children. My grandmother is the only surving sibling now. Mom went over there last night to tell her the bad news.

Gram has had a hard month. She completely totalled her car-and broke a bone. She is upset as mom is moving out of the area.

If you can find it in your heart- say think good thoughts- send them to my grams way.

Thank you.

I lost one of my great aunts in April, she was in her 80s, and one of 12 children, two that did not survive into adulthood. She suffered a great deal at the end, so on one level at least she was not suffering anymore. It is sad to see a generation pass away, condolences to you and yours

I thought you finally cakked the parakeet from masturbating it.

My good wishes to your family, and most especially to your grandmother, it is rather distressing that late life is set up for so many depressing incidents.

Well, I will say a prayer for her. Sorry to hear about that.
