My grandfather will not make it.

I thought it was likely that he might not make it, but I was really holding on to hope that he would get through this. I was thinking that he was really strong, and maybe he would pull through somehow. I was trying to go through everything with the idea that he was just staying in the hospital for a bit and that he would be leaving it soon.
He has been a big part of my life. He will be greatly missed. When I was young, he was always happy to spend time with me while I was a kid. He played a big role in the person I turned into. He has had Alzheimer’s for the past year, and so lately he hasn’t recognized me. I thought I was more prepared for him passing away than this. Mentally, he hasn’t been fully present for a long time, so I thought it wouldn’t hurt as much when he finally went.
It really hurts. I was wrong. I’m sorry. I can’t think straight right now. I’ll see everyone in April or something when I can think again.

As someone who was really close to their grandparents before they passed I feel you pain. Take all the time you need and take time in the future as well. Everyone grieves differently for me I was sad at the funeral and then was fine for about a month after. All of a sudden I had thought about my grandma and it wrecked me for the better part of a week.

When i saw my grandfather the last time in the hospital... i really feel you. My grandparents where an essential part of when i grow up, parting with them was terrible.

Anyone who demands or thinks you should write during this is a failure of a human being. Take all the time you need to grieve.
