Tonight, I got to sit by the bed of one of the downright sweetest lady's bed as she lays deathly ill saying her goodbyes and biding her time until the final moment. It was surreal. To see how this wonderful 94 year old woman has withered like a flower over the last 2 weeks has been so saddening. She is my fiance's great-grandmother and the two of them are incredibly close. Closer than any I've ever seen. Best friends and family, always. This is incredibly hard on my gal, seeing her slowly fade away. It started with kidney failure 2 weeks ago. Since then, she has known her fate and has been saying her goodbyes. She's given everyone their Christmas presents. She loves getting kisses right now. The doctor says she has maybe 2-3 more days to live. All positive thoughts and prayers are appreciated.

Here's to you, Memere.

They are a completely different generation! Alot tougher and nicer than current generations. My grandmother is 88 and still push mows her 1.5 acre lot, refuses to let us boys do it. As hard as it is to say good-bye to the matriarch, she has had a full life! God Bless!

Yes she has had a full life. Letting go is hard, nonetheless.

Sorry to hear.

Glad she got to live a long, happy, fulfilled life.

Be glad you only had to see her deteriorate for such a short time and that she was given the opportunity to be a part of your lives for this long.

Ive learned recently that no matter how long you know its coming, its still hard when the moment actually arrives.

      That's why I said stats aside. I lived in CO during Allen's college career and didn't have kids at the time so I watched most of his games. Bruh, I'm telling you. Balls just spraying all over the place. The type of throws where you're honestly trying to figure out who he was even trying to throw that one too. It was crazy. Richardson was inaccurate in college but at least you could tell who he was trying to throw it too. He threw a lot of early in the game Cam Newton type balls where it seemed like he was just a little too amped up and everything was a few feet high.

      He was a more accurate passer at 56.2%. That's what I mean. Even by outlier standards, this dude was inaccurate. Closest I can recall to something like that would have been one of those GT QB's like Reggie Ball. Career 48.6% passer.
