I got some really sad news early Friday morning to say that my Nanna had passed away. She had been unwell off and on for a little while and recently she was suffering from a viral infection that wasn't treated straight away, she is such a stubborn thing! Mum saw her on the Thursday night and thought she was not looking very well and was realy worried about her. She got a call from Pa around 4.30am on the Friday saying something was wrong as he couldn't wake her. Mum went straight around, lucky they only a few minutes away from each other. When mum got their they called the ambulance but it was too late as they think she passed peacefully in her sleep a few hours earlier. Mum, Pa and Roz got to spend a fair bit of time with her before they took her away, which was nice for everyone.
Ryan and I came down to Hobart late Friday night as we had a few things up home we needed to do before we left. When we arrived we saw Pa as he had had dinner with Mum and we spent a bit of time talking with him before Ryan took him home. Saturday we just hung out and spent time together. Today we have spent time with Pa and have been around at Nanna and Pa's place looking for something lovely for her to wear for the funeral on Tuesday.
I have found some pictures of her that we have enjoyed looking over and remembering the good times!
Nanna was such a lovely looking young thing!
