My GrandMom - Deranged Photography Contest
My GrandMom Arminda Varela
Hi to all, Im Nahu Padilla, from Caracas, Venezuela, South America and Im going to write about my grandparents: My grandfather was a very appreciated doctor by the people around here, he researched all his life in the field of General Medicine and allergies, he cured and healed many patients, especially those with low income, often without charging for treatments. He was also a lab technician and radiologist.
They are my GrandParents. My GrandDad: Nahum Arbelaez and my GrandMom: Arminda Varela
My grandmother was a nurse, during her whole life, she held the position of Chief Surgical Instrumentalist in the a big "Maternity" here in my country, Venezuela, in the city of Caracas. They both dedicated their lives to health field. My grandfather was hospitalized for cancer at the Military Hospital until his death in 1994, cause he was a doctor and a soldier.
This lasts years, when my mom pass away in 2009, I was like a male-nurse of my grandmom, take care of her and of course, we going to the hospitals, to the doctors, I bought her medicines, we have to pay a lot of money for expensive medical tests and therapies, and a lot of medical cares, she had 90 years old when she pass away because a stomach cancer disease, 4 april, 2016.
I stay with my grandmother until she pass away, taking care of her and being her´s male-nurse
I´ll always remember her with her big smile, her good vibes and her blessings and prayers for me and my entire family!
My both parents and my other 2 grandparents pass away too, so all of them are in the Heavens like my Guardian Angels:

@nahupuku thanks I gave it an upvote.
awesome, thanks you ;)
You certainly took this contest to heart, and that is one big heart you have - quite an emotional read. You have my respect looking after your Grandmother through her frail old age, that is a challenge very few would be capable of.
You share some wonderful photographs of your family, your guardian angels I am sure are very, very proud of you.
Your first photography with you and your Grandma is really quite stunning, a wonderful memory. This competition will be fiercely competitive, but you have won whatever happens in creating such a beautiful post that has so many I know replying in your comments.
I hope @crisangel and @saffisara will have chance to call in and leave you their own comments, but for me this is a fantastic celebration of your family and a true winner.

Beautiful post- and good luck with your entry.
