R.I.P NANNY IRIS
my nan was always this bright happy person and her and my grandad were always going away on holiday...until one holiday when my nan fell ill.She then got diagnosed with Cancer of the liver and bowel in September.My whole world absolutley fell apart around me when my mum told me. She soon started kemo and i kept telling myself "she will get through this...she is a fighter". by Christmas 2009 i knew the story had changed...her health started to deteriate and she ended up in hospital over christmas...this made my world feel lonley...i was loosing my nan and there was nothing i could do to help her even though i really wanted to. She then got discharged from hospital but had to stay in bed because she found it very difficult to walk and get around. On January 26th i was at school in my lesson when moya turned up in my classroom asking if she could have me and all my stuff...I knew it was nan going into hospital again...me and my brother broke down in tears in eachothers arms and we were taken by taxi to my other nans house to find my mum in floods of tears and she sed to me "if i could give her longer then i would...it felt like a knife had been repetedley stabbed through my heart...my mum said to me "do you want to say your goodbyes?" i replied with "no mum, i want to remember her for the happy bubbly person i always knew her to be" Later that evening we went home and i cried myself to sleep...nothing seemed to be making any sence. i still went to school the next day...to keep my mind off of things otherwise i would have driven myself insane. at the end of school i had to go to front reception where my mum and dad were waiting to pick me up...we took a very quite drive home to find my neice and sister at my house..."come through to the kitchen" mum said we followed and my dad told us she had died...i felt like i was dieing inside...my world had been torn apart in the space of 2 days.
even to this day...3 months later...it feels like yesturday
