Thank you all.
When you make the decision to move thousands of miles from your home and family, what will happen if/when a family member dies is one of the most prominent thoughts.
That thought helped me realise that you need to appreciate people for who they are right now, because tomorrow they may not be there for you to appreciate. So I did, and I mentally said goodbye to Grandma last time I saw her (4 years ago). Even then, she wasn't the grandma I carry with me in my memories. The one who hated to dust (so never did) ((like me)) but thought a new coat of paint /varnish solved everything so every surface was a poem in Braille -dust encapsulated by the latest coat.
