When was the last time you spoke to your grandmother?

I talked with my grandmother a little over a decade ago, just a couple years before she passed away. The last thing we did was have an argument. Later she apologized several times. But, I was young and foolish and hard headed and refused to let it go. She died before we ever spoke again.
Looking back on things, I should have seen how ill she was and cut her a break. She wasn't trying to be mean to me. And, our argument had been over something so trivial and meaningless. She was just sick and on lots of medication. I wish I had things to do all over again. I never got a chance to make things right with her. I hope she knew how much I loved her.

That is such a sweet thought. Grandmothers play such an important role in their grand kids lives, especially nice grandmothers.

I was blessed with three grandmothers, who all dote on me, but all are now deceased. I loved all three of my grandmothers and enjoyed spending time with each of them! They were all wonderful women of strength, and sources of inspiration for me. I miss all of my grandmothers! Believe it or not, my grandmamas still do visit me occasionally in my dreams, especially when I am saddened.

She knows. The last time I spoke with my grandmother (granny) was the Easter of 1989, the one and only time she got to see her newest great-grandbaby, my daughter was born in January of that year. She had several strokes, the last time I saw her she was in a nursing home, hospital portion, and she was asleep, which in a way I was thankful for because by that time she really didn't remember things or people. I always stayed in touch with her over the years, I just wish my daughters could have known her.

First, I am sure that your grandmother knew how much you loved her. Grandmothers have a way of knowing these things no matter how much we grandkids act up.
Second, I talk to my granny all the time. Almost every single day to be exact. She will call me just to see what I am making for dinner. She calls to ask me if it is cold outside. She lives with my mother 2 miles away. She knows if it is cold outside. She annoys the heck out of me and I try to avoid her as much as possible. I love her, but I just cannot deal with her constant calls.

I know how you feel! My grandmother passed away years ago and she was living in a rest home because she had Alzheimers Disease and other medical problems to go along with it. I lived quite a distance away and not driving I couldn't get to see her as often as I would like to have. I am comfortable in the fact that she knew how much I loved her when she passed.

My grandmother is still alive. I went around to her house a couple weeks ago. I really should visit more often, as she lives really close to me

I am so sorry for what happened to you. I am in very good relations with my grandmother. She is not very old but she still wants to be in charge of everything but she is too old for that. I talk to her almost every day and I see her almost every day.
I am sure your grandmother knew you loved her.

Two weeks ago...we try to talk at least once a month. We talk about little things and I send her books quite often. People sometimes get angry with the people that they love because this can be another way of expressing affection.

My grandmother is no more but as long as she was alive, I was very close to her. In fact before i got married and left my parents' house, i used to share my bedroom with her as she wasn't keeping well and it had become necessary for someone to keep a watch in case she was unwell at night. she was a very wise and a thrifty lady and y family says I am a lot like her lo !!
