Today I spoke to a colleague who just got back from the hospital. His grandma was admitted two weeks ago and very unfortunately had since suffered 3 strokes. The poor old lady has already got a heart and diabetic problem. My heart truly truly truly goes out to them.
So while he was trying to juggle between work and family, we've decided for him to handover some of his jobs to a team mate in order to release some of his time to be spent by his grandma's side. Not to be pessimistic but, we have a feeling that she might not have much time left. And I guess the most important thing for now, is to make her feel comfortable, happy and loved during her last days. He practically grew up with his grandma therefore I can imagine the attachment and sadness.
Thanks to the few good men (and women) who were very willing to rise up to the occasion, our boy can now spend more time in the hospital. Bless them. These are times when money can't do anything for you. But a whole lot of humanity, can.
And I sincerely hope that whatever happens, peace, love and joy will be upon his family.
