Grandpa

by Lauren from Morinville, Canada

Grandpa is my hero. He showed me how to just be yourself no matter what. He had cancer. When you have cancer you lose hair and lots of weight. He got really tired so he started to live in the hospital. I never got to see him in the hospital.

I will never ever forget the song we would sing called "Ching, ching, ching, ooh bob a loobooba". My grandpa hated jeans but he got used to it. He had to because mom and I love jeans. He would freak if Riley, my little sister and I dressed in dresses. He would say "Oh you look so beautiful."

The last time I saw him he wasn't feeling the best. I will never forget the last hug we had. I said "See you next time. ' When I said that I did not know that the next time would be in about eighty years. Love my grandpa.
