Remembering my Grandmother: Ruby Mae Gibson

My grandmother health has been a roller coaster ride for nearly a decade. I unclear of every instance, but what I know is that she had issues with her blood pressure and she had to change her lifestyle. She quit smoking and didn’t eat a lot of fatty foods. She’ll eat a whole onion and tomatoes with no problem. She had a heart transplant and had to use a pace maker. The week before and of Thanksgiving 2004, I visited my grandmother daily to tend to her, feed her, and pray for her. I owed that much to her for all the things she has done for me. She showed me how important family is and I know that because of that example, I am able to handle the stresses that dealing with certain family members and because of the word of God that I am able to back up everything I do. My grandmother said to me on her death bed, “When are you gonna marry that Ray?” I laughed because I didn’t expect her to say that. I knew that that would be our last conversation. She is dearly missed and she is the reason why I choose to have a house full of children. If she was alive today, she’ll take my babies and bite their jaws and nipple their feet. LOL
