My fathers parents passed years ago. Thankfully I was to young to really understand, but old enough to have memories of good times with them. I still wish I had gone to the funeral though, I cant imagine how hard it was for my father. My mother’s parents are getting quite old and it is one of the few things in my life I truely worry about.
Its a tough break man, happens to everyone,gotta find a way to cope with it because everyone finds comfort in their own ways. Just be there for the people who are hurting the most.
very sorry to hear man…like everyone else said…just remember all the good times you had with him, and spend as much time as you can with your grandmother now cause shes prolly going to feel very alone… my condolences to you and your family man…
You have my condolences. My grandpa passed away two years ago yesterday. Every now and then something will catch me off guard and I’ll still miss him like hell. That last time he went to the hospital we all knew he wasn’t leaving. The family gathered around from all over the state. I had gone in to see him the day before… Fuck, I’m tearing up at work. NM.
It sucks. It’s OK to miss him, don’t try to justify his death. (I.E. “He’s in a better place now so I should be happy.” Yeah he is in a better place now but it’s still OK for you to be sad and miss him.) If you can surround yourself with friends and family. That’ll help. God knows the funny stories about him will start to flow.
ive lost 2 grandparents. one when i was much younger and one just a few years ago. It was hard a few years ago. My mom still cries sometimes on holidays and stuff cause its just not the same without my grandma around. feel better man, and remember, shes in a good place now.
