If I could meet anyone in the world, dead or alive (excluding Jesus, for obvious reasons) I would want to meet my maternal grandmother. She passed away when I was three years old from Alzheimer’s. I have only one memory of her: she was in the nursing home and my mother was brushing her hair. I also have another different memory of her: it was in a dream and she came to me right after she died and told me that it was going to be ok and that she loved me. I am almost positive that this really was her coming to talk to the only grandchild she never met. The reason why I want to meet is because of all the amazing things I hear about her from my mom and her sisters. My mom learned a lot of what she knows from her including cooking. I’ve also heard some stories about how she acted and her personality. I just wish I could have met this awesome person, someone who everyone loves and misses so much. I wish I could have had a home cooked meal from her and sat down and talked to her. I wish I could tell her how much I love her and miss her in my life. I wish I could tell her how my life is going, how I’m going to nursing school and how amazing of a job she did of raising my own mother. I just know she was an amazing woman through what everyone else said and if I could meet anyone, I’d meet her so that I could know for myself. I only had one grandma growing up and she’s AMAZING but there will always be that whole in my heart where my other grandma’s love was meant to be.
