It’s so amazing to see the way he loved her. Choose someone who will still be your absolute best friend 60 years from now. Who will still hold your hand in the good times, but more importantly during the bad times.
These photos may seem sad to some.
Others may enjoy the fact that they are evidence of a very strong love that existed on Earth.
According to Emily Hime, the granddaughter of the couple in the photos, it’s a snapshot of “something beautiful.” The beauty of unconditional love.
Viral photos of her grandparents cuddling in her grandmother’s hospice bed were shared on the Chathan-Kent Hospice Facebook page as a “special message of love”.
As a result, I’ve come to realize that the most romantic love story isn’t Romeo and Juliet… it’s Grandma and Grandpa. The most difficult time in Grandma’s life was when Grandpa was by her side,” Hime wrote.
In addition to doing laundry and cooking, Grandpa held his wife’s hand through chemotherapy and accompanied her to all doctor’s appointments.
Hime wrote, “It is the hospital staff amazed by their devotion and said that everyone loved seeing them together, including the people sitting in the waiting rooms,” he said. During her hospitalization and stay at the hospice, he was by her side every day.”
As described by the American Cancer Society, hospice care aims to improve the quality of life for people with “advanced life-limiting illnesses” as well as their caregivers.
For a moment, the grandfather thought that his wife would return home, so he asked his granddaughter to help him decorate the house with signs.
When she didn’t come home, he would rub her face and kiss her on the forehead.
When they were 20 years old, Grandma and Grandpa met at a cycling club in England.
Throughout those 60 years, that love grew stronger every day.
It was incredibly inspiring to see how he loved her. Choose someone who will still be your best friend 60 years from now. Someone who holds your hand in the best moments, but especially in the worst. Hee wrote, “Love is being able to say ‘she is the most beautiful thing and I love her so much’ in front of a room full of people. That’s love.”
Below is Hime’s original post.

Hime posted the photos along with a post.
“I was lucky enough to witness something beautiful during the last months of my grandmother’s life. It was the unconditional love between my grandparents,” Hime wrote.
Grandpa used to joke about not being able to survive without Grandma since she took great care of him.
Towards the end of his life, those roles were reversed.
Grandpa had a hard time adjusting. It was a challenge for him to learn how to regularly do things he had never done before.
