How hard it is, to see you go. You’re still with us as I type this, and I am going to cherish that feeling. You and I have never failed to get along, and as far back as my memory goes, I’ve always been excited to travel up island to see you. I still remember the days I’d spend with you as a kid, playing games, drawing pictures, painting, or hanging out in the back yard. I remember the time I stayed with you for a week, and you drove me to an art camp in Lantzville. I even remember the day you brought sandwiches, and pastries after my session was out, and said “we’re going to the beach!”.

When I was little, you always knew how to surprise me. You always loved nature, as do I. The days I woke up in your house, I felt at ease, and you always managed to make me feel like I’m at home. Anything I ever told you, or showed you, always managed to put a smile on your face. Even the little things that may not be as exciting, always brought a very positive reaction out of you.

As time went on, I began filling my life with other components, simultaneously forgetting to leave room for family. That is the thing I’ll always regret… not leaving enough time for my family. But my biggest regret as of now, is taking the time I had with you for granted. As people often say, you don’t realize how good you have it, until it’s gone.

On your behalf, I’m thankful you were given the opportunity to part ways with us on your own terms. I understand these past few years have been rough, without grandpa. Furthermore, worsening with time, to the point where you’re ready to begin your journey up above. When I walk into the hospital, I see tons of patients along the way, wondering what their stories are… and then I see you. All I can think about now when I see you, is the memories I had with you as a kid, and perhaps a bit of self-loathing for being negligent with the time I had with you.

Having said all of that, I’m going to cry when you leave, but eventually smile because you were here. Perhaps from above, you’ll be able to read this, and if you are, I just want you to know that I love you. You will always hold a special place in my heart, as you were the closest family member to me, outside of my immediate household. For someone reserving that spot in my life, I wouldn’t have had it any other way. I could’ve never asked for a better grandmother. Even though I’ve less social, and more absent these past few years, I just hope you knew that I didn’t love you any less. Thank you for being the best grandma there is.

Update - 11-24-24

She passed, peacefully with all of her loved ones in her presence. She was given the opportunity to read this piece of my writing the night before she passed, and she loved it. I’m happy for her, as this is what she wanted, and I know she wouldn’t have had it any other way.

Thank you Grandma, for the good memories, and being the matriarch of our family. Like I said before you passed, I will keep doing what I do, making others in my life happy… and I won’t let you down.

❤️

News from Nanaimo, Vancouver Island, BC, Canada, 17 July

Wildfires in British Columbia have led to over 70 evacuation alerts or orders, primarily in the central Interior region.

Environment Canada has issued severe thunderstorm bulletins for the central Interior, warning of potential storms with strong winds,

2. A working group consisting of various Canadian agencies and officials has been formed to address the ongoing wildfires in BC.

The group's focus is on developing plans for deploying federal resources to support the province's firefighting efforts.

Two military reconnaissance teams have already been deployed, and their assessments will guide the deployment of further federal resources.

3. The Parksville Beach Festival in Canada attracts sand sculpting professionals from around the world and is known for its high quality of sand sculptures.

The festival allows visitors to watch the competitors carve their designs using various techniques and tools.

The event raises funds for local organizations and has donated over $1 million since 2000.

4. The North American Indigenous Games bring together Indigenous athletes from across the continent to celebrate their identity, culture, and future as Indigenous leaders.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau emphasized the importance of the games in furthering reconciliation with Indigenous peoples and supporting Indigenous youth in reclaiming their language, culture, and traditions.

The games aim to infuse Indigenous traditions throughout the event, with ceremonies such as smudging, elders providing guidance, and signage in Mi'kmaw, English, and French.

5. The Island Red Cedar team won the Silly Boats regatta in Nanaimo, British Columbia, with their fast and efficient boat.

They made no mistakes in their races and used a tiller for better steering. Other top performers included Coast Hotels with a bed-inspired design and Rotary Nanaimo/Lantzville with a bicycle-powered boat. Some entries had fun but didn't cross the finish line first. The event raised money for the Nanaimo Child Development Centre, which relies on fundraising for its programs.
