That was very very well-put, Aparna! Thank you so much for your response. You’re absolutely right, it can’t all be boiled down to that one last sentence, true. But because of the pandemic and my college studies, things were too hectic for around 5 years to just visit and spend time with my grandpa. I did of course, but not as much as I would have liked to. I made plans to start visiting every Saturday or something similar, but now it’s not possible. But yeah, I think he knew that I cared 😊 I had shown it as much as I could. Just felt like a gut punch for the entire family though.
Thanks again for such a beautiful, insightful message. It did make me feel much better❤ I hope you and your loved ones are staying safe through this.
