A fashion designer and entrepreneur based in London, United Kingdom Miss Fey trends on Twitter after posting a heart breaking story of how she fears loosing her 103 years old grandmother who’s not feeling well.

@Miz_Fey tweeted “I woke up to a call from my mother. My grandmother who’s 103 years old has been asking to speak to everyone since morning. Didn’t know when I started crying. I just hope it’s not what it is. I’m not ready for this yet. I was crying and she started praying for me one prayer that stuck was you will be happy. I love her so much.”

@Jessica replied with a tweet “My paternal grandmother did the same thing. We were far from her, so we communicated through video call. Though, she could hardly recognize us, until we started refreshing her memory with events and our names. Few days later, she left. It’s been almost 4 years now.”

@Bee also replied with a comment “I hope this doesn’t come out the wrong way but she’s 103 years old. You should be prepared. It can happen in the next minute, day or month. When she does go, be thankful. She lived a full life. People don’t even reach 70 years these days.”

@Greg tweeted “She looks so cheerful. I understand how this feels, no matter how old they get, we still want them around especially when they are the type that constantly put smiles on our faces by the way they talk or behave, we would miss them regardless, but death is inevitable. Stay strong.”
