First off Lauren, this is one incredible picture! There are not many people out there fortunate enough to be able to show one.

Secondly, I am so very sorry to hear the news about your grandma. From reading your comments she sounds like a very strong woman. And as someone stated above, when a family member gets diagnosed with cancer, it affects everyone in the family. That is so true. But keep your head up and stay positive.

If you need ANYTHING, please don't hesitate. I am also traveling down this path with my mom and have been for three years. CCasper75 at comcast dot net.

Many hugs and prayers being sent your way!!!

Thanks Cathy. I'm so sorry to hear about your mom.

My grandmother is a trip. She is very strong and if anyone could come out of this, she could. But unfortunately the cancer is too far advanced. I talked to her today and she seemed tired but in good spirits. She was joking that they were "making" her take a nap. Looks like she will be discharged on Monday to a skilled nursing facility. There is still no time frame for her prognosis but she is a fighter so whatever they tell us I think she will surpass it. I definitely feel better since I spoke to her.

miracles happen.... so prayers sent for the four of you....

2 moms, and 2 friends.

My grandmother passed away yesterday. I am really glad I was able to get this picture. I will treasure it always.

I love you Mom Mom. Rest in peace.

Sorry for your loss. Gunflint

Debbie

Lauren and Dave, I am so very sorry to hear about this news. Please, if either of you need anything, I am just a phone call or e-mail away!

Sending many, many hugs out your way!

Cathy

Thank you all for your kindness. I know she is way better off where she is now.

The viewing and funeral aren't until Friday and Saturday. It is going to be a long week.

My Mom told me today that they are having this picture in the casket with her. I am proud to be a part of the 5 generations. I just wish we could have had it continue longer. She was a wonderful woman. I am really going to miss her.

Thanks Debbie & Cathy.

I am sorry for your loss but no doubt she is in a better place.

Lauren, I just saw this picture. How fortunate you were to be able to get all five generations together for such a beautiful picture!

I know that you will miss your grandmother. If it gives you any comfort, she did not have to live long in a diminished capacity from the stroke, nor did she have to suffer long from the cancer. In a way she was really lucky.

And, she got to see her great-great grand daughter! How many of us will live to see that? Wow!

May God bless you and your family with peace.

Heather

Lauren,

I just saw this....i'm deeply sorry for you and your family's loss!

a great pic to have for future generations to cherish.

God Bless,

Prayers are with ya!

Thanks Heather and Dup.

I am so appreciative that we were able to get this picture. My Mom originally wasn't planning on coming to visit until August. Because of the stroke she came early. Luckily my grandmother was in good enough shape that we could take this.

She was very lucky that she didn't have to suffer long. She wasn't even in that much pain until about 12 hours before she died. I am also glad that my Mom got to be here with her. She was planning on going back to Florida at the end of this week. Since this come on suddenly there probably wouldn't have been any way for her to have gotten back up here.

I love this picture!

:)

Thanks Cathy. I can't believe it has been so long. Hailey was 3 in October and my Grandmother passed away a couple months after this was taken. Thanks for topping it.

No problem Lauren. Hope I didn't bring up painful memories for ya.
