For every up, there is a down, and my down just hit me hard. Every ten seconds is another swallow away from tears. Sometimes the swallowing doesn't stop the tears.

Right now it just feels good to write, so that is what I am doing. My mom called me last night during the festivities of St. Patty's Day. She told my and my sisters that my grandma died last night. Everytime I stop thinking about it so I can focus my thoughts elsewhere, it just comes rushing back to me in more strenght than I can bear. I wish I didn't have deadlines in front of me, then I could actually bear the weight that has been put on my shoulders. And my little sister is visiting right now, I should be home with her, helping her through this, she is more fragile than I am. I must get back to work now, this has helped me free some of the pain, but I can't let myself sit still.

I'm sorry to hear that. I remember when my grandad died like it was yesterday ('bout 9yrs ago). It sucks when you lose someone. Don't hold back the tears, let it out. Be strong and celebrate her life instead of mourning her passing. Everyone deals with things differently so do whatever you have to get through it. I offer you and your family my sincere condolences.
