My Grandma Asked for Money Before She Passed — What She Did With It Broke My Heart
Two days before she passed, my 68-year-old grandma sent a message in our family group chat.
“Does anyone have a little money to spare? I’d like to buy something important.”
The message sat there, unread by most — ignored by others. Everyone was busy, everyone assumed she’d be fine.
That night, I couldn’t shake the guilt. I transferred her some money without asking what it was for. She replied with a simple heart emoji and a “Thank you, sweetheart.”
The next morning, she was gone. Peacefully, in her sleep.
When I went to her small house to help clean up, I froze the moment I stepped into her kitchen.
On the table were dozens of little gift boxes, neatly arranged in rows. Each one had a small golden ribbon and a name tag — mine, my parents’, my cousins’, even my uncle who hadn’t visited her in years.
Inside every box was something tiny but deeply personal — a keepsake, a photo, a small letter in her handwriting.
And suddenly, I understood.
