Great Grandma......

Today was a very sad day for our family. We received notice from my Aunties in Vietnam that my Great Grandmother (Ba Ngoai's mom) just passed away. She was 86 years old. She had been ill with a large Goiter in her throat. This is from lack of iron in her body (my Dr. Uncle Binh told me). I didn't know my Great Grandmother and my Mommy didn't know her Grandma in person but it was still a very hard loss for us. She was the last Grandparent on both Mommy & Daddy's side of the family. Ba Ngoai was getting ready to go visit her in July but she just couldn't hold on any longer.....so my Ba Ngoai that watches me everyday will be leaving to Vietnam on Friday for 3 weeks. I'll miss her tons but she needs to be with her family right now in Vietnam.
