I need some help
My mom's birthday is Monday.
At first I thought maybe me, my mom and grandma could all do take out from the OG. But then I thought, my grandma cant eat and she is hooked up to her TPN. Then I thought it was kinda morbid kinda of like a "last meal" thing.
I really hate for my mom to sit at my grandma's bedside all day, but I know that is where she will say she wants to be. I know my mom better than that.
I asked my grandma today if she remembered mom's birthday was on Monday and she said yes. I asked her if she wanted me to get her anything and she told me to go ahead and get her something.
Ugh, not that I don't want to do this for my grandma. But again, what do I get her? Whatever I get her, I know my mom will A, keep it forever and B, always remember it was the last birthday she shared with grandma. So I really want it to be something special.
FML, this is all so hard.
My mom always tells me that grandma is her best friend, so I thought maybe I could get her the pandora bead that said friends forever I also thought of the angel bead. Is that too cheesy?
Thoughts/Opinions?
Re: I need some help
My grandma will be at her house. I just bad about bringing food b/c she hasnt had food in over week and today she said they wouldnt even let her have some pudding. And two days ago I was talking to my mom in front of my grandma about food and my grandma said "oh, stop talking about food, you are making me so hungry.
Oh, hmm, in that case I might skip the food too, especially if I couldn't eat OG and had to smell it.
Now I am at a loss for what you could do...
Do you have a picture of your Grandma with B2 that you could frame for your mom? She would probably love that!
Your idea is great too!
I do. It is from Christmas. I also have a picture of me, mom, grandma from my baby shower.
This is a fantastic idea. I also really like the bracelet/bead idea.
I'm sure you've already got something by now since her birthday is today... so I'm late to the game. I hope today goes well for you. (((((hugs)))))
