Life is a Learning Experience

Life is a Learning Experience

We all life in a really thin line, we don’t know what can happened to us only God knows. Last week was the most terrible experience that I have had in my life. On Tuesday at 2am I received a phone call that has changes my life upside down. It was horrible news that I was not ready to deal with. But I knew that I had to be strong. My lovely grandpa was summited to the hospital in a critical condition due to an accident coming down the stairs. He fell and hit his head at the ground. As I was on the phone in less than a minute all his memory come to life in my head, gripping me with pain inside of me because I didn’t want my grandpa to suffer. On our way to the hospital I was praying to God with all my faith to help my grandpa to get better. While, I was getting inside to see my grandpa his doctor was explaining to our family about his condition which the doctor wasn’t giving us any hope for him to get better because of his age and his diseases. My heart stopped I didn’t know what to do, so I got closed to him and I hold his hand asking him to be strong and to fight with this incident so he can get better so we can all go home. In this situation I think there are people that are ready physically and emotionally to let go a wonderful person and there are people that are not ready.
In order, for me to be ready to let my grandpa go to heaven I had to understand and learn how to deal with because I have never experience a loss of a person until now. My husband’s mother saw me how difficult it was for me to handle this tragedy so she told me to pray for grandpa and to leave everything on God hands. It gave me a little encouragement. Meanwhile, I was thinking about my grandpa over and over on how he had struggle all this time with his illness instead he will always had a positive mind that I think it helped him to be stronger and to fight day by day to survive. But, unfortunately because of this accident there was nothing that he or his doctors can do to survive this tragedy. Therefore, I started to understand that I don’t want to see him suffer anymore that I want him to be in a better place next to God if that what God wants. Even though it was going to be difficult to let him go but I knew he is going to be in better place.
I have always believed that if I died there is a better life at the other side which is heaven. But because I am attach to my family and my friends it makes me difficult to even think about it. All my family has been in the hospital to support each other every day. In the other hand my grandma seems to be calmer because her faith it’s so strong that it helped her to be calm. On Sunday at 4am my grandmas come to the waiting room to let us know that our grandpa has passed away. We all hold our hands and we give thanks to God for let us be part of grandpa life.
As a result of this experience my life has change. Now my goal is to spend time with my family and enjoy every single day as it was the last. Because of what I have learn is that we never know what God is planning for ours.
