About Juan

About two years ago my grandmother was diagnosed with stomach cancer. It really hit home hard because the doctors told us there was nothing we can do.At the time i was in college so balancing school and her sickness was taking a toll on me. Although, the doctors told us her time was limit i knew i had to enjoy the time i had with her and just be strong for her and be there when she needed me. The cancer spread fast and she got worse by the weeks. In and out of the hospital I knew she did not have long. She would have trouble eating, walking, seeing and even speaking. I would try to feed her as much as she could although it wasn't much I knew she needed energy. I would also try to help her walk around so she get her legs to move and not lay in bed all day. I would try to talk to her as much as i can but she would get tired easily. Her last days in the hospital I would stay long hours just to help her with her needs and be there for her. I felt like it was my job to just show her a slight of hope that everything will be okay not because i had to, because i knew in my heart it was the right thing to do. After my grandma passed away I knew she would have been thankful and proud for everything I done for her. This showed me to be a better person and help the ones that really need it. There are many individuals that don't have families or don't have anyone to help take care of them and I feel like i can be able to help as much as I can. Seeing a smile on someone's face, that has
