Meet Gritty Granny
I open the pages of my life to share stories of struggling, overcoming, and insights gained along the way; the myriad emotions that paint the canvas of my existence.
I write about my life and journey
To open the door for anyone seeking comfort, insights to start anew, or companionship on their journey. I am not a grief counselor, but I am a woman who has lived a life full of the grace of God, whom He brought from victimology to victory.
Faith
When I am lost in moments of deep pain, I remember Lamentations 3:22-24, Through the Lord’s mercies we are not consumed, because His compassions fail not. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness. “The Lord is my portion, “says my soul, “therefore I hope in Him.”
Care Loving
End-of-life caregiving was just as much a gift to me as it was to my husband. I found myself in a place where time seemed to slow down and presence became everything. Nothing outside of us mattered to me. Only him. Holding his hand late into the night, adjusting his pillow with care, or simply sitting in silence was love in its purest form. These acts were small in appearance, but they carried enormous emotional weight and gave dignity to his final chapter on this side of heaven and eternal release from infirmities.
