It was very interesting to read about the Buddhism traditions for a death. It sounds so personal and reflective. I can't imagine what it is like to lose a spouse. I hope your grandma has many friends and family nearby :) Thanks for sharing!

I also can't imagine what it's like to be completely alone after such a long time with company. It's amazing that you went and helped her after the accident though. Hope she didn't get badly injured! :( I wish I could visit my grandmother more often but as I live on the other side of the planet it's quite impossible :(. So sorry to hear about your grandma, Anna!

Thank you for sharing! I know what you mean about being worried about your grandmother. My grandfather passed away back in March, and she is SO lonely now. She actually fell over Christmas, and I went over to her house to walk her dogs while she was still in the hospital. It was around 6:00, so it was already dark, and the house just felt so...empty. I can't imagine being alone after 63 years of having someone right by your side. So sad. Can't wait to see more trip photos! Amazing…amazing. Thank you for sharing!
