I had high hopes of participating in RP. then we had a death in the family, so my life is a bit disrupted for the next week with family shit. it's ok, don't worry. nicks grandma, who was 1000% also my grandma, passed yesterday. she was 99. yesterday was the first time in her life she was ever really sick. she was the most wonderful person I've ever known.
me, nick and his sister were holding her hands talking to her when she took her last breath. it was both an incredible honor and horrible heartbreak.
I love you all. ill get back to it soon.
I'm so sorry for your loss. take care of you and your family. RP (and we) will still be there whenever you get back to it.
99 years old...what a run.
a very good run. she still lived on her own. didn't take any kind of maintenance meds. Just had bad eye sight.
she was that wonderful grandma who every single person should get to have. she was that person who loved everyone as if they were her own. totally my example for I don't give a fuck how old you are, you can accept gay people, trans people, brown people. Marge was the best at that.
the very first time I had surgery I was so scared and marge came with. she used to be a 'candy striper" at the hospital back in the day. everyone knew her. she looked my doc in the face and told him, this is my granddaughter and she thinks it's silly you are operating on her knee but want her underwear off.
listen, I was really upset they wanted my panties off for keep surgery.
he just says to her, of course she can keep them on Mrs. Allsop.
she was there every single time I had surgery. she would take nick to get food and distract him cause he always gets so upset when I have surgery. and she was my best advocate with nick. to get him to take care of his mental and physical health. she laiiiiiiiid into him after his heart attack.
and my Colby. he doesnt like a lot of people. but he will tell everyone I have a favorite grandma( his great grandma) it's marge. she's better than everyone else. that's saying a lot. Colby thinks most people are shitty in some way, even people he likes.
my 24 year old gamer dork who hates leaving the house loved nothing more than taking his great grandma Raising Canes for lunch and showing her stupid videos he loves.
That's a hell of a eulogy, Chelle.
I really love this lady. I'm so sad she's gone. but wow, she was wonderful.
Omg I'm so sorry. Some grandma's raise the bar so fucking high. There'll never be another Marge but you'll always carry her love and her memory with you
//
all my hugs and love//
she sounds like an amazing lady. and tbh Colby's got the right idea about people. no one's perfect, so even people we like are probably shitty about some things. he's a smart kid.
Grandma sounds fierce as hell! I’m glad that she lived a full and healthy life and was such a presence in your lives. Despite that, no matter how much time a person has, it’s never enough for those left behind so I’m so sorry of the space her passing leaves behind. Love you all to bits.
Sending bunches of love, my friend
