Just a little bit sad

It's been just a little bit sad as for the past year my grandfather has been quite ill and not really getting better... It's great that we're here to spend some time with him but I fear his time is nearly up. I mean he's nearly 92 so that's amazing. It's just hard to see people suffer as they get weaker and weaker and there isn't much you can do to keep their spirits up. So we've been doing daily visits to him and my Grandma to try and keep things jolly. Mum has been baking up a storm and we're carting the goods over to them to enjoy. It's really the strangest thing as you feel terrible that you can't do anything to make it better. Life can be one great challenge after another, learning how to balance the positive and keep focusing on the 'now' is key especially when a loved one is nearing departure.

We're doing our best how to figure it all out and stay strong. Hang on gramps! It's so very nearly xmas.
