Today my darling grandpa died. I came down to Hobart on Wednesday to help nurse him in hospital and was fortunate enough to be with him as he died.
He was more than a grandpa - he was my nonno. My sister and i lived with him after my mum died so he was more like a dad. Some how he created a safe haven for us - i now know people can deal with extra-ordinary situations if they feel safe and loved. Without his compassion, support and love i really don't know how i would be. I don't think about it. It just is. I had his interest and support with all i did. I have had a living guardian angel in my Nonno and I will miss his husky voice and pats on my hair with his hands. Ciao for now Joe :)
