This is my mom's mom and we have always been close with her throughout our lives and her and my Granddaddy lived in Ft. Worth. She is whom I'm named after; Alice Ann Anderson.
She survived breast cancer in the early 90s. She survived losing my Grandaddy in 2001 of Leukemia. But over the last couple of years she has been constantly bothered with different aliments and most of the time, the doctors never knowing exactly what was going on. She's been in and out of the hospital alot, but still determined to make it and live at home with her 2 cats. Late Saturday she went to the hospital again, but this time she wouldn't go back home, at least to her physical home. But she is now home in heaven and with Granddaddy.
I miss her so much already. The last time I saw her was at the beginning on May when she was in a rehab facility trying to get back home.
She has always been a huge part of my life and I really can't imagine it without her. I loved growing up getting together with her and the rest of my mom's family (as she has 2 sisters and a brother). We would all get together at least once a month to celebrate holidays or someone's birthday. I loved having slumber parties at her house when we were younger. We'd pop popcorn, order pizza, and watch movies. We actually did this for the first time in a long time around Christmas at her house with all the grandkids and I'm so thankful we got to do that one last time with her before she was gone.
I was so hoping she would live and be around to meet Carter. It honestly breaks my heart that she won't. But he will have a piece of her and his middle name is Anderson.
She was my last grandparent alive. Now there are none left. Sometimes it sucks growing up and watching people leave your life. But I know they are in a better place and not suffering anymore. What better place than to be in heaven, the most perfect place to be with Jesus!!
Grandmommy, I love you so much and miss you more than you'll ever know!!! Please tell Granddaddy I love him too!
