At 2:20 this afternoon my grandfather passed away after 3 months of fighting bowel cancer.
Just got back from the hospital, grandpa hasn’t woken up at all today, he’s very frail. He’s pumped up on morphine and sedatives
His doctor said he probably won’t live past Monday
He’s not in any pain but please pray for him and hope he doesn’t suffer anymore than he already has!
He is so adorable, the look on his face when we got him a wheelchair and took him outside the hospital for the first time in 2 weeks was priceless!
Yesterday was a good day, he chatted away, watched the opening of the olympics and ate some yoghurt.
Who knows what today holds!

Grandpa to mom this afternoon:
You know, for 10 years since your mom died I’ve been lonely, really lonely but I’ve really looked forward to when Michelle comes and stays over with me. When she’s gone, I’m back to being lonely until when she comes back again. I really enjoy it when she visits me
*sigh*
I’ll miss that and it’s killing me, I just want to spend all the time I have with him
