I think my grandpas dying...

[Ivy Artemisia]

This is a weird situation, and I guess I just need a hug. My grandpa is in the hospital... I haven't seen him in YEARS. He seperated from my nana a long time ago. Now, my mom called me and told me that I needed to come over tonight so we could talk about my grandpa, cause hes not doing well.

Now, I haven't seen him in years, but I feel like crying. I feel like a freak, because I barely know him, but I'm super upset over it. Is that weird? Am I weird? :awwman:

Any words of support are really appreciated.

And he feels it too.

It's not weird and you're not weird. You have compassion and you're worried about him, regardless of how close you two are. If he's in the hospital, go see him. My grandfather passed away almost a year ago and it was very sudden--I didn't even have a chance to say good-bye. I'm sending you energy and hugs for this difficult time. :hugz:

You're not a freak in any way for caring about somebody in your family, no matter how distanced they are from you. And you're not weird either. If it's workable for you to go see him, then it might be a good idea to do so. I'll light a candle for you and your family. Losing someone is always so hard.

Thanks, you guys... I just needed some reassurance that Im not weird. :-/ I might go and see him in the hospital if he is awake and wants to see us. If not, then I don't think I'm going to. Unless I get pressured into it by my family. I don't need to see him (if hes unconscious) to say goodbye to him. I'd rather just remember him like I do and say goodbye in my own way. I don't really know whats going on, but since my mom said, "We have to talk," I'm just expecting the worst. Thanks for making me feel a bit better about my emotions. I really appreciate it.
