The emotions are portrayed so accurately it is impossible to tell.<br /><br />I can relate to this - it's exactly what I felt when each of my grandparents died. It was harder with my grandma because the kids were old enough to know a little more. It was a bummed out Thanksgiving that year for sure.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2230384076641171546.post-38370340362096430162013-02-28T14:33:56.600-06:002013-02-28T14:33:56.600-06:00To have to tell a child & explain that someone...To have to tell a child & explain that someone is no more-possibly a much loved grandparent-is heart breaking in more ways than one.This piece makes one ponder on the internal agony & conflict of a person in such a painful situation.Well voiced & I hope & pray that this is not really happening to you,tc.

It is fiction I hope... for your head. A well written account of waiting for someone to die. And then having to tell a child. I have never had to do that, and I'm thankful. I know the feeling of not answering a call to talk to someone I don't know. Good use of the prompt not to alarm the child.tedstrutzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09853272125990540823noreply@blogger.com
