Sevyn Streeter writes about losing her grand dad. What she wrote below.
To whom I get my last name, For the past couple of days & nights, I sat by your hospital bed praying for a miracle. Begging for a miracle! Fasting for a miracle! I wish I could come up with some poetic words to make myself feel better, but I can't! Truth is, at 11:02pm last night night I watched you take your last breath & felt like I was taking mine!
People tell you to "Remember the good times" when you lose someone....well I don't want to! I want you HERE! Sitting in your chair in the living room, driving your mini van, asking me for a few dollars & a bottle of crown apple! How do we cope?! I was just with you last week! You were just telling me to "tell my ex to kiss my you know what". I feel like I want to die! The deaths are getting too close as I get older! I wanna take another trip to Alabama with you, grandma, jazz, Jay & Brandon! I wasn't prepared for this!!!! As they wheeled u off to your last surgery, I whispered in your ear & told you to "Fight"! I know you tried b/c you've always been a fighter! But God had other plans I guess, & I know I have to trust that! I can't end this positively b/c I feel like shit! All I want is to hear you laugh again!
I thought that I would be able to one more time. Now I'm stuck with this reality....a world without you! Love you Grandad Streeter, I will NEVER get over this... #LIFEISSHORT

Hello there Sevyn it's 33844 Polk County from the 14620 Monroe County The Roc! Just thinking back when I say my mom take her last Breath before I knew she would never return. I begin to laugh, cry, scream, but then I remembered my mom telling me all the time how much she loved me and was proud of me, this will bring me to my calmness because that made her happy and all I've ever wanted to do was make her happy and proud. I have a few old home movies that I love to watch with her great grandkids and they're like who's that. Telling them stories and seeing their faces puts a smile on my face, so that love you have for and with your Granddad will always remain dear to you that you'll be able to share with your younger relatives
It's okay to cry.
...and God shall wipe away every one of your tears...
I'm praying for the family; the whole family.
