Also, I do feel I am back to my same smartass self so that's a positive. I remember when my own grandma passed away a couple years ago from pancreatic cancer. I flew up to be with her for a week and when I walked in I told her, "Damn grandma, you really got yourself in a jam this time" My aunts were aghast. Later my grandma told me that only my cousin and I seemed to realize that she was dying. Everyone else was in denial. She was at peace with dying, she too lived a long life. I hope when it's my time I will have that same peace. Ultimately we are judged by the things that cannot be taken away. It sounds like she has a great family and y'all have great memories, that is a wonderful life.
