Description
Picture of my Grandma.
She's 73, yet still has a young spirit. She cracks me the hell up. Unfortunately, she has cancer and won't be around too much longer. She beat deadline though, they said in september in about 9 months she would have passed away, but she beat the odds. I met her basically this year, because she was originally from winsconsin, but I'm glad I'm getting to know her more and more each day. She can't do a lot of things, which makes her sad, but she still insists on being rebelious, which makes me giggle. I think she's gorgeous too.
I was talking to her yesterday, and I told her she had a young spirit, she laughed a little and said, "I try"
She asked me not to forget her, and I told her I wouldn't.
She's sweet.
She's my grandmother, (Hot Rod) Nancy.
(Please, no pity comments)

My godmother Mary was the same way; rebellious and witty 'till the end.
Her favourite flower was a hoya, and she never saw it bloom, and it was just budding a few weeks before she passed away, but she said, word for word, "That F*cking thing better not bloom before I croak"
Cancer sucks.
Stay strong, my friend
(Mary beat the odds too. She had a year, she fought for 13, and near the end, she was told a week, she fought for almost 2 months
