My sweet beautiful Maw Maw, I still can't believe that you are gone. My heart wont accept it. Its a nightmare that I cannot wake up from. All I want is for you to hug me and tell me that everything is going to be okay. Being in your arms would make all the horrible things go away and I felt safe in them. I love you so much Maw-Maw and I will see you when I'm called home. I know you will be there with open arms and a smile.
