Just had a second interview via Skype for Planned Parenthood in the LA area. I really liked them a lot. I think I'm going to have a 3rd interview when I am out there in December.
If ever there was a time I would accept hugs it would be now.
Spoiler:
Been in bed over an hour, dozing quite happily and my Mother calls me. I insted of leading into the conversation gently, she came right out with..
"Grandad came up today, Grandma was diagnosed with oral cancer this morning"
Which promptly led into a conversation (very one sided by my Mother) on the operation my Grandma is going to be having on her soft pallette in 10 days time.
I know she's done well to get to 82 but I always imagined my Grandma living forever, she's always been the strong one.
Needless to say I'm a little shaken and no longer particularly tired.
Sorry to rant, but no one I know is around for me to call this evening
*Huggles for everyone*

It's hard to deal with things like this, I know because I have lived through them all. I've lost all 4 of my grandparents, then both my parents and now my brother earlier this year. I am the last one left in my immediate family and I still have a long time to go yet (or so I hope)!
I wish there was something, some magical words I could say that would make it better for you. But to be honest, there are none. You need to live through this and you have no choice. If you really need something, the only words I can give you is to love her while you can, always remember her in your heart and mind, and keep on living. You have no choice. As time passes it will change. When it is her time, you will miss her, occasionally (like right at this moment) you will shed a tear or two. But your strenght at this time in the best way to honor her. Give her love while you still can and be there for her. Smile at her, hug her. All these things will make your grandmother feel a little better and as time passes on, it will also help you as well. My thought and prayers are with you.

MoB, glad to hear the interview went well! Sounds like something I can really imagine you doing and getting a lot of satisfaction from, so fingers crossed for you!

Being original is difficult when you can't stop quoting your favorite tv show, For crying out loud!
Send out the Sekrit Santa assignments, hope I included everyone who entered
Laurie made me realize that I haven't put the specifics in the PM (totally in character. Blame the broccoli )
So...
The assignments are due during Martinmas (19th- 30th of december).
You van PM the presents to me
and I'll keep them.
*blinks*
Pass them on. Forward them. Send them to their new owner.
*nods*
If anyone isn't happy. Blame my mother and her evil hands.
EDIT: Also... I haven't had the time and uhmpf to PM absent WooHoos, so if you come across someone who still wants to join within reasonable time (or are said absent WooHoo) have them contact me and I'll see what I can do!

It just came as a bit of a shock as I only saw her a couple of weeks ago and it hadn't been mentioned that she was ill - though I am normally the last one in the family to find out anything important.
Now to try to sleep as I have work in the morning.
