ah fuck i don't know what to type right now. what with whats being going on recently so i'll just say it. i just got a phone call from my parents saying my grandma just died.

i only got a letter from her just the other day! apparently she had a heart attack and then a major one at the hospital. grr i hate the way i feel because this is the second relative that i knew really well to have died and each time i just don't get happy or sad or anything. i mean i should feel something!

i'm pretty fucked up inside right now but i'm not letting this get me back onto alcohol and i'm not gonna let this fuck up my life like another emotional trauma that happened to me last year that i dont talk about at all.

Sorry t' hear that.  I know the feeling though.  When my grandmother died, I didn't cry, I didn't get sad.  I just... was.  I actually asked my dad (it was his mom) "Dad, why are you crying??"  because I couldn't comprehend crying over it.

Sorry to hear DKB.  I know how you feel too.  I was kinda the same with my Grandma as well.  She had Alzheimer's and it was almost a relief to see her not suffering and for the relief of stress on the whole family.
Hang in there, man.  You know you've got us all if you need an ear to bend.

Hey DKB; sorry to hear about that...

My own Grandpa isn't doing so hot either...always wondering if I'll see him again.

You have my sympathy.

think of the passing of a loved one not as a loss of an important part of your life, but as a loss of pain in theirs (perhaps only a small consolation).  while death is one of the most difficult things anyone will ever have to deal with, death is a constant, and in my opinion death is the more preferrable option in some cases.  i have, in the past year lost a grandfather to lung cancer, a very close aunt to ovarian cancer, and am now losing an even closer uncle to melonoma.  i am now finding life to be more and more difficult to live, simply knowing that such wonderful lights can be dimmed or snapped out in just a few moments because of the flaws in their frail bodies.  the only consolation that can be offered to a situation such as this is that your life still goes on, regardless.  there is always someone who has suffered worse, and there will always be someone who understands.  and there will always be everryone on detnet who cares.

I never knew any of my relatives... they either live too far away or weren't the get-to-know-you type.

sorry to hear about your grandma dkb.
