The Pain of Her Absence: Mourning the Loss of My Beloved Grandma

Reason I have not been online

Some of you might have noticed I’ve not been active here on medium for some days now some might not notice

Well it’s really sad to write this I lost one of my favorite person my grandma

She’s my mom’s mother who have always been there for everybody

She’s really a nice human and free spirited her death was so sudden and shocking we never thought of losing her this year or even the next ten years because she’s physically strong she runs all her errands by her self when no one is around We only run errands for her when we are around in her house

She has an habit of helping others

Every Christmas my grandma makes a larger pot of jollof rice with well seasoned/ fried chicken and shares it among the neighborhood, Because of these most children and their parents assist her during the cooking process

Most don’t even cook during Christmas including we her children because my grandma does all the cooking we only assist her by buying her every food items we will need and that’s all

She calls us when the food is ready to come pick it up
