On Sunday June 5th, Grandma Ballantyne suffered a heart attack. After being revived, she was left in a comatose state. She had many visitors. In fact the nurses in the ICU said that they had never seen someone have so many visitors. That every hour Grandma could have vistors, she did. Someone was always in with her. After spending 5 hours at the hospital talking to Grandma and singing and watching her hoping for something to happen, this moment became a special one and one of my favorites. It went something like this:
Grandpa leaning down to talk to Grandma he says: The old man is back again. Can I stay for a while?
Grandpa then staring at Grandma--he leans down and says: I sure do love you. {leans down and kisses her forehead then begins rub her head and check her feet to make sure they are warm and then he rubs them}
66 years together. No greater sight to see than the eternal love of two people.
