It was a wiry and still day in March 1995; Shannon was 24, when she received the same phone call that her granny received when Shannon was little.  She was over five hundred miles away, when her mother called and said, “Your grandmother has passed away.”  She screamed as though someone had cut her heart out and was stuffing it down her throat!  There were so many knots in her throat, and the pressure would not let up.  She felt like someone was choking her, while poring hot liquid in her eyes as it ran down her face to the floor. 

She thought was this the moment missed.  Is this the moment when your body goes numb, because you were not there at her side to comfort her?  Was granny body numb during her moment missed, because she was not there when her brother died?  Or is this just the moment when she said “God knows best.”
