Grandma and Grandpa "B"

Looking back on my life so many of my happiest times were with Grandma, and Grandpa. I always felt so safe with them as a child. Even as an adolescent, and an adult. Their was something about them that made me feel so secure. Like one of my biggest memories was September 12Th around 3:00 to 4:00 am: It was my second eldest brothers birthday. He had moved home for awhile. Then I remember as if it was last night. My father answered the phone and said. Oh no not Brent! My brother had been in a horrific car accident.I sat right up in bed. I could not breath. I was paralyzed with fear, and of the unknown. Then my father ask how bad it was? What hospital he was in. Then he immediately called his father my grandfather. Within 5 minutes grandma and grandpa were their to take me to their house. I was really unaware about the entire situation.They had such a good way of handling any type of situation. They both assured me that my brother would be fine. I instantly believed them. Grandma got in bed with me and patted me on my back. She said her prayers with me gave me a kiss and ask if me if I was worried. I said yes grandma I am scared to death. Grandma said give all your worries to me, and child you get some sleep. I said she replied shh, shh, shh, go to sleep we have allot to do honey, goodnight. Just remember grandma is right here for you. The extraordinary thing about my grandparents was they were 99.9 % correct. By the way my brother he is doing extraordinary.
