Coming up seven years soon that my Nanna passed away, and each day it kills me just that little bit more. But I know she's safe and happy where she is. How can I describe her?
Beautiful for starters, she was an inspiration to me. She was so strong whilst fighting cancer, I wouldn't of had the strength she had. Hope she coped I will never know, but that was my Nanna for you, a strong independent beautiful lady! I would do anything to be like her; and I mean anything.
She treated her family with respect, and she did the best for them. She held on for as long as she could I know that, I hate whoever it was who took her away from me, whether it was God or stupid doctors!
But the only thing I can blame was that cancer that was eating her up inside.
I don't really know what to write anymore. But every day she's still in my memory, and not one memory of her has faded away, no matter how young I was. I love you Nanna, with all my heart, forever and always.

I've not written in a whole four months, so I thought I'd come by today and write. I got enough time to catch you up on what's going on.
In year ten now, as you know, and it's not as bad as I thoguht. I took Drama, and yesterday we had our first actual performance infront of people, and it was so much fun, we made a few mistakes but everyone does in every play, nothing is ever perfect.My mum met my boyfriend too, Neil, he's lovely bless him. Makes me smile and everything he does, he's a right little comedian too. Jared's starting at his boarding thing again, Mondays and Tuesdays, which means I basically have the house to my self :D
What else? I can't think to be honest Nanna. I'm proper living it now though, realised thanks to you, that you shouldn;t ever give up, cause you didn't, you fought to your death and that is what makes you so brilliant. You never gave up, never let us down. Always put a smile on my face, whether if it was just popping round, or meeting me from school, or even saying i love you, you was always there to make me smile at the worse of times. I fount a picture of me and Paige from when you took us to the fair and we got our faces painted and I was a butterfly. I was your butterfly. I wish I was one, then i could fly to you as many times as I wanted and still get back in time for tea.
Anyways, gonna go now. I love you more than anything, and if I could I'd swap places with you in heaven.

Nanna, lately all I've been doing is thinking of you. I can't beleive its been so long and how far away from you I am. I know your only up in heaven, but there's always a little peice of you in my heart where ever I go. I wish you could see all the things I've achieved in life, all the things I did well in and all the things I wanted you to be there for. I wish you could see how much me Dominic and Jared have changed now. Jared's so much bigger now, he's seventeen this year and Dominic's twenty this year. And me, well I'm fifteen. We've all done some things we wish you was there for. Jared's getting an electric wheelchair soon.
That reminds me of the time when we went to Jenny's for new years eve and Dominic was gonna come but he fell off his electric scooter, you told him it was dangerous. Hehe.
I wish you was still here to hold me now Nanna, I still need you every now and again. Times when I've had my heartbroken, or fallen out with someone, or even just cut myself a little bit, I need you here, just to make it all right and to always tell me you love me. I miss those words. I miss your hugs, and I miss your kisses. This time has flown by way too fast. But time doesn't heel the pain, I figured that one out. I'm all grown up now Nanna, still a bit immature though, but I'm mature with certian things. I've got two math gcse's on Monday And Tuesday, wish me luck., I'm gonna need it.
It's my fifteenth birthday this year, and I wish you was here to come along and meet all my amazing friends, and of course the boyfriend Adam, you'd like him, I only go for the lads i know my gorgeous Nanna would like and agree on.
Anyway, I have to go now, got to get ready to go see Adam and some friends. I love you so much Nanna, please don't ever leave my heart.

i miss you.
Been too long Nana. Every day is so hard without you here. I really miss you, and I wish I could just sit and hug you and tell you about everything that's going on in my life.
I wish you was here. I need you to be honest. I love you and always have. I was only young when you got took away, but I know you're never completely gone because I never said goodbye.
I miss the memories, I wanna make more and I know I can't, not with you any way.
I don't know what to say, but I keep your picture in my purse, so whenever I open it, your there, smiling up at me.
I love you, and I wont ever forgot my Nana.

Been a while now Nana, everyday I still think of you.
I still got the BIG Mickey Mouse teddy bear you gave me not long before you passed. I still beleive it smells of you. I always look up at the stars and wish on the same one that one day I'll see you again.
I wonder what you're doing sometimes, whether you're looking over me, Jared, dad, Dominic or someone else. Yano it's so hard, not having you here with me. I need you here but I can't have everything.
I'm glad there were those days where i could sit in your arms and hug you and you would hold me close and tell me you love me, cos I was your grandaughter and you was my Nana.
I remember you picking me up from school, in a bag from Maz's you would have pot noodle, blue ribban and mullier rice just for me, and you would take me to yours and cook it all for me. And you would sit there and let me tell you about my day at school. God I never shut up back then. I wish you could see everything that's happening for me. I miss you Nana.
I love you always

Hey nana, it's mine and Jared's birthday tomorrow. I'm turning 14, he's turning 16. It's scary thinking it's 6years since you've been gone, but theres not one day that's gone by where I haven't thought of you. In everything I do , when I need advice, when I'm thinking if I should do certian things, I think of you and think of what you might say.
I miss you.
The other day I was on Bebo, and I made a poem up for you, I can't exactly remember how it goes now, but I made it for you.
I miss you.
I guess you have gone, and people say it gets better in time, but trust me , it doesn't. For me each day is as painful as yesterday. I want to hug you, kiss you I just want to have my Nana back. Why is God so cruel? He took the best thing in my life away from me, I hate the fact you're gone, I despise it. You shouldn't be in Heaven, right now I am in hell because you were my heaven.
I miss you.
I have to go now, I'm getting ready to go Manchester.
I miss you.
I love you.

E;even days till christmas now Nana. I still cry, but when we go down Manchester, I still think, I'm gonna go see Nana. But then I realise I cant. I remember one time earlier on this year where we went to see your grave and I was sat in the car, it was near my 13th birthday, and I just started crying, I wanted you to be there, holding me telling me you were still with me . You were so strong, I wish you never left, I want you here holding me. I miss you. I will always love you, I'm all grown up now, in big school. In the past since you've been gone, things have gone wrong. I'm thinking back on the past, I promise it wont be too long till I join you up in heaven with all the angels. Sometimes I look out to the stars, and I know you're gonna be the brightest one. I know you're in a better place, but I still wanna see your face. I've just been to the fridge where theres a picture of you holding me when I was a baby. You're still here somehow. The song that plays when people come on here, remind me of you. When things get scary it's not my dad or mum I want holding me it's you. The first time you offered me to sleep, I wish I took it, but unbeknown to me at the age of seven I didn't know it would be the first and the last time I would ever be able to stop. We all still think about you, I always think about you. If there's something I have no confidence to do, I think of you and I think of you telling me to do it cause it will be good for me, and I do it. I'm thinking about singing school, I want to sing Miley Cyrus- I Miss You. I want to sing that just for you.
I'm gonna go now, otherwise I'll cry too much, but Nana, never forget I LOVE YOU because I'll never forget that you love me.
From Jodene And Jared And Dominic.
Nana
Oh my god Nana, Five years all ready . I miss you even more each day, I wear your necklace everyday.
I still remember, I wrote you a little poem before you passed. I only remember a bit of it vaguely
I love you, you know that , dont you!
You use to pick me up from school, always with a blue ribbon and a pot noodle waiting for me.. if not a blue ribbon then a mullier rice warmed up just the way i liked it..
I still remember once, when me you dad and a few other people went out to the pub for some reason.
You let me stop at your house for the first time, but I cried cause I wanted mum. So stupid I was, I should of stopped, little did I know that it would of been my first and last time.
I miss you so much it hurts, when I need your help, I either rub the ring, cuddle the Mickey Mouse teddy you got me or look up to the sky. I know your always with me.
I cant beleive your gone, but in a sense to me your not cause your always going to be with me. I love that picture of you holding me when I was first born.
I remember once when I was at your house with Jared, and we were taking pictures, we got some beautiful pictures. I wish I had them with me. I would be so happy.
I've written loads haven't I? I'm still the same, never stops talking. I'm never gonna change because this is who I am. This is who you will remember.
I'm growing up and I dont want to, I still want to be that little girl who loved(and always will love) her nana so much. I can't wait to see you in heaven ok!
You'd hold me close in your arms.
I never wanted you to leave, I want you hear holding me.
I still shed a tear, every once in a while, maybe whilst my mum thinks I'm sleeping. And even though its different, you're still here somehow, my heart weont let you go, I need you to know. I miss you.
I wish you oculd see, everything that's happening to me. I know your in a better place, but I just want to see your face I know you're where you need to be, even though it's not here with me. I miss you, I miss your smile.
i love you soo muchh!
