I Miss You, Gran and Grandad

On the fourth of February 2010, my gran sadly passed away. She had been frail for quite a long time but I never expected this to happen. I felt like no one could understand how i felt, my world had collapsed. The only reason I stayed strong was for my grandad's sake. They had been married for 59 years and I couldn't bear the thought of seeing him the day my gran died. But I had to put on a smile and act as if I was okay just so he wouldnt worry about us all. Two months and 4 days later, my grandad was taken from this world and sent up to heaven to see my gran. He had been in hospital for a few weeks and my mum decided me, her and my sister should go on holiday for a long weekend. It was the day we were leaving when my mum got a phonecall from the hospital with the bad news. I can't even describe how I felt, I just thought the world had been so cruel to me. My gran and grandad really did mean the world to me and through the hard times they'd keep me going. I miss them so much and I'd give anything to walk into their house and see them both chatting away in their armchairs. I don't think anyone understands how hard this is for me, not even my friends. I love my gran and grandad with all my heart and I know I will see them again someday. xxx
