Losing your best friend?

Post Reply New Topic

I just cried for a whole hour at the thought of losing my grandma, and even though it hasn't happen yet, I don't want it to happen. I see no purpose to life really if she pass on, and it's kind of sad/pathetic in a way, but that's how I feel.

It's just she's getting older, and it saddens me...

anyone felt the same?

It's always sad and scary to think of our family dying. It's something that we all have to go through and it's devastating when it happens but over time the pain does lessen. Maybe if you talk to her about this she might be able to help you feel a little better right now. It's hard not to think about older relatives dying, especially when they start getting on up there, but if you are preoccupied with her death then it's going to be hard for you to enjoy the life that she's got now and the time spent with her. Look at it from her perspective too, she knows she's getting older and closer to that one inevitable thing we all have to face one day so she has time to prepare, and you to doo. Also, as much as you will miss her, no parent wants to have their child or grandchild die before them.

She must a very special person and lucky to have you for her granddaughter. The inevitable pending death of someone who is close to you can be overwhelming. Sorry you're suffering through this.

I have a mentor and when he told me that he lost his vision due to medical complications, in private, I cried hard. I know he won't live much longer and that is really hard for me to cope with.
