The day my grandma, Gloria, passed away, I never expected that the only thing I’d inherit from her would be an envelope filled with a few dollar bills and a note that would turn my world upside down.

I remember walking into the nursing home, feeling a mix of anticipation and guilt. It had been over a year since my last visit, and I couldn’t shake off the feeling that Grandma had figured me out. My wife, Natasha, and I had been in a tight spot financially, and I won’t lie, we had taken advantage of Grandma’s love and generosity more than once.Gloria had been more than a grandmother to me; she was my savior. After a childhood marred by my dad’s neglect and bad choices — he was an alcoholic and a womanizer — Gloria stepped in, offering me a lifeline.She taught me about love, sacrifice, and the importance of family. Yet, somewhere along the line, I lost sight of those values. My mother passed away when I was just two, and Gloria was my second mother, but I failed to give her the respect and love she deserved…The first time Natasha and I deceived her was when we lied to her about Natasha needing surgery. We needed the money to fund a lavish getaway to the Maldives, but Gloria, with her heart of gold, didn’t hesitate to help, unaware of the betrayal.The second was when we moved Gloria to a nursing home. We told her it was because we were planning for a baby and needed more space, but the truth was we wanted the freedom to live our lives without the responsibility of caring for her.Her home was spacious and comfortable, and it was just what Nat and I needed.
