Be kind to yourself. You put effort into looking beautiful because you wanted to celebrate a special day. Your intention was loving and positive. Remind yourself that one incident doesn’t define your worth or your relationship with your family.
Decide on forgiveness (at your pace)
Forgiving doesn’t mean forgetting or excusing what happened. It’s about freeing yourself from the weight of resentment. Take your time, and when you’re ready, consider discussing your feelings openly with your granddaughter to rebuild trust.
Reconnect gradually with family

Treat yourself to activities that make you feel good, whether it’s shopping for a new outfit, trying a different hairstyle, or simply spending time with people who uplift you. Reaffirm your beauty and strength on your own terms.
Communicate openly with your granddaughter
