A Huge Thank You

So this past week has been hell for me. My grandma is extremely sick and barely with us, and I just wanted to thank every single one of my friends who's texted me, messaged me, just given me any type of contact telling me they're either praying for me, thinking of me and my family...there are absolutely no words to explain how grateful I am to you guys. This past week has both tested my patience and also showed me who my real friends are, and I...wow. Thank you guys. So much. I love you, and I hope you know that. I'm sitting by my grandma's bedside right now, in fact. She can't really talk to us, but she can hear. And the past couple days I'd whisper in her ear that all my amazing friends are praying for her, and she'd turn her head slightly, and that's how I know she's still mentally with us. Her heartbeat's getting pretty irregular though, and she's basically gasping for breath, but I've only left her side to eat and sleep. After 17 years of her sitting by my hospital bedside, it's honestly the least I could do. This week has also changed my whole perspective on things. Usually I'm the one laying down extremely sick with loved ones surrounding me, now I realize this situation isn't fun at all either.
Thank you to everyone who's keeping my family in their thoughts. I love all of you and appreciate EVERYTHING.
Love always,
Melanie
