My maternal grandmother passed away Saturday night before 11 PM EST.
The wake is scheduled for Tuesday evening in Quincy, MA, with the funeral the following morning. I don’t know if I can or will travel from Oregon in time to make either the wake or funeral.
At the moment I’m just trying to finish my column for InDesign Magazine as a means of ignoring reality and remaining functional.
I’m in total denial, and am therefore maintaining my composure quite well. I honestly don’t know how I’ll react when I allow myself to accept the fact of her passing.
