I throughly enjoyed your story. I lost my son 2 years ago and never got to say goodbye. I can feel the pain your grandmother felt. We should always tell our loved ones we love them and let our pasts fade away. Thank you.

Thank you so much, and I'm so sorry to hear about your son.

A nice ending. Bearing grudges throughout life is just so heavy. Forgive seems to have lightened the family. I hope anyway. We are all flawed in some regards, right ?

Thanks! And 100% on all of us being flawed -- I know I sure as hell am

What a mom. What a Gram. What oceans can exist between us, and what beauty we can create from the ashes. Thank you, Jared.
