#grandmother
So sorry ladies and gents! I know I have disappeared again out of the blue when I promised I was back for good. I must seem like the flakiest blogger of all time. I have had some pretty major road bumps in my life recently. I know it sucks for you guys, but life happens and occasionally I actually have to be the one to deal with it. Sucks, right?
So here’s the low down of my life over the last few months of my disappearance. A very dear friend of mine, lapsed into a coma of unknown origin for 5 weeks. We were all exceptionally concerned that he wouldn’t make it past these extreme hurdles. But against all odds, about a week before Christmas, he woke up. He still has a long recovery ahead which means I’m still not 100% back to the blogosphere since I will be trying to spend at least 1 day per week at the hospital with him.
After all this happened, I was informed that my grandmother was very ill, with cancer. I cut my hours down at work so I could be there more for her and my friend, we moved my grandmother into our home, and started caring for her full time. Unfortunately she took a severe downturn after Christmas. Last week we were forced to move her into Hospice care, and yesterday, she passed away while I was stuck at work. It’s a lot for myself and my family to process, so please be understanding about my absence.
All this being said, I am in need of a good distraction. So today and tomorrow you will likely notice a big boost in my question responses. If you have been waiting some time for your answer, I truly apologize. I hope you all had lovely holidays! Lots of love my darlings!

My grandmother Agnes Bernelle (far left) and actress Marlene Dietrich. Granny and Maria, Marlene’s daughter, had been friends growing up in Berlin. My grandmother was lucky enough to escape the Nazis and flee to London before war broke out, but many of her relatives did not survive The Holocaust… This photo was taken in 1951. Granny was certainly glad to reunite with Marlene, a familiar face from her happy childhood.

This little cute girl is Ruth and she ’s the grandmother of @beermejessica! She is so cute! She was born in 1919, so this photo it’s probably around 1921-1922. Also the picture was taken in New York ❤️
Thank you for your sharing @beermejessica

My beautiful grandmother from my mother (3rd from the right) whom i never got to know, with a friend, my grandfather and my aunts. I believe this photo was taken in the mid 50’s. #vintage #grandmother #grandfather
