Grandma<3

My grandmother passed away last night. I didn't really think that she would this time.  After all the times she has been so close she always beats it but I guess it was just her time.  She was in a lot of pain so she's peaceful now.  My father said I could come home but now my mother is saying no.  And it's my mothers mom who passed so I feel I should listen to her.  Even though flights are really cheap right now she still wont let me.  She was my only grandparent left and we were really close so I feel like I should be there.  I also wanted to bury the rosary beads with her but I wont be able to now, even if I mail them, they wont get there on time.  If I came home it would have been tomorrow morning until Monday and I would have missed so much here but I dont even care.  I spent like 2 hours on the phone today trying to see if I can make up a quiz I would miss and finally got them to let me.  And now I cant even go home.  A foreign country alone is the last place you want to be when one of your closets family members dies. God this sucks.  I might go over to the Duomo and light a candle or something for her this week.  Her funeral will either be Thursday or Friday so I will probably go one of those days.  We're going to Milan and Venice this weekend which I am now no longer excited for.  I would rather be going home.



And if you were with me tonight,
I'd sing to you just one more time.
A song for a heart so big,
God wouldn't let it live.
May angels lead you in.

rip grandma.. i love you always
