Selfish
I found out earlier this evening that apparently my grandmother had a mild stroke. She's at the hospital and is going to remain there for a few days to recuperate. I'll be visiting her tomorrow after class. I can't help but feel selfish though. She's the glue that holds this family together and I want her to get better because I know that if we lose her this family will end up tearing itself apart. I honestly don't think that side of my family will survive. I can't help but feel selfish for saying it though. She's live a long healthy life, and if I can think of anyone that deserves to rest it would be her, but I want her to be healthy so she can keep the family together. Not to mention the fact that nobody can make guccidotti birds and trees like her.

She's raised five children, ten grandchildren, and I can't remember how many great-grandchildren. She's taught me just about every card game I know; Blackjack, 31, Rummy, Go Fish...pretty much all of the classics.

I'm hoping that things will be better tomorrow once I get the chance to see her.
