So sorry to hear about your grandpa's passing. It was years before I could cry after losing my grandma, so I know what you mean.
You're in my thoughts and prayers,
Drive safe,

I wish you were taking Kenna, Rich or both with you. I think you need the company.
Your grandaddy was blessed to have someone who loves him so much.
Be careful driving...

*HUGS* I agree that it would be better to take someone with you, like Rich, but I guess it is tough to get someone to babysit Kenna last moment, 12 hours is such a long trip. If you start to get too emotional or tired remember to pull over! We want you to ge there safe. More hugs.

Oh Heather I was hoping things would get better the way it sounded the other day. I'm so sorry. You really have been so strong to do all you've done so far and I think now that the numbness is definitely a normal feeling. In the same situation I know I didn't cry for several days afterwards and then all of a sudden I just couldn't help it. I really wish I could give you a huge hug.
You're being so brave to go by yourself. I will definitely be thinking about you on that long trip. Keep in touch with Rachel or someone so we know that you've made it safely and such. Things will get better. Think of coming back to Kenna's birthday. Love ya and big big hugs!

And I second Panda - the tears will come, and they'll be a relief when they do.

Dearest Heather,
I'm so sorry for your loss. Surely you and your family are in my prayers. I will be praying for your long drive, that it be safe and that you will be comforted.
"He will swallow up death in victory; and the Lord God will wipe away tears from off all faces; and the rebuke of his people shall he take away from off all the earth: for the Lord hath spoken it." Isaiah 25:8

Heather, sweetie, I'm very sorry for you. I know how much your grandfather meant to you. It's a good thing you can't cry right now, what with that 12-hr. drive ahead of you. When you're ready, cry your heart out as much as you need. But remember that you're not crying for him, you're crying for yourself. We grieve for ourselves because we want our loved ones with us. In truth, they're much better off where they are. Your grandfather is happy now, he has no pain and he's with Our Lord, where we all want to eventually be (if we're lucky). Your grandfather had you up to the end; your love is a wonderful gift you gave him. He died happy, I have no doubt. Be happy for him, Heather. You proved yourself to be a marvelous granddaughter.
{{{{Hugs}}}}

Heather, I totally agree with Bev. I couldn't have said it better. I can promise you though, that the good memories are going to flood you if they haven't already. I urge you to journel them. You may remember things that you forgot about and may not remember again.
You will always love him, and miss him. Praise God that he blessed you with this man he gave you for a grandfather!
I am always here for you honey! lovegayla
