I lost my grandmother last week on February 4th, 2021.
I'm blessed to not have lost many within my 21 years of life. I am so grateful for that. But my Nana, in which I called her, was the tree that held up the branches in my family. She was my mom's mom's mom, so I was the fourth generation. Her great gran, I think but we had a very close bond.
So losing her is so surreal for my family. It stings that she's no longer here physically, but I'm so happy that she's no longer in pain and officially....and permanently cancer free.
I swear diseases like cancer, Dementia. Alzheimer's, Parkinson's...all of them are evil and cruel. It's fucked up. To watch a beautiful strong black woman, so independent and so loved by many as my grandmother was to battle through a death ridden disease just....confuses me. Kids. Babies. Walking angels. Why?
it's so unfair...
But if you're also someone who has lost a love one to cancer, Covid or any other disease-What helps me is to know that they no longer are diagnosed with it. They are truly in a better and beautiful place than we are. And they are no longer suffering🙏🏽
I'm just going to miss my Nana...
