I just want to tell somebody

I just got a call from my dad, who is at the hospital, who told me that my grandpa just died. He (my dad's dad) was rushed to intensive care on Wednesday: he started getting better, but today he got worse and this evening my dad got a phone call from his sister and he had to rush off straight away as it seemed that he wasn't going to make it. And of course he didn't

This sucks because:

->My Grandpa was a great guy who was always singing and telling stories of his time in the war and when he worked in Saudi Arabia. He'll be sorely missed. Especially by my grandma to whom he had been married to for over 60 years.

->My dad is absolutely devastated and my mum is currently working in spain so she can't comfort him--that's my job now.

->Today was my dad's birthday

Yeah so I understand this might be inappropriate or whatever, but I just want some sort of comfort or something, because I haven't told anyone irl yet and I'm not sure I want to, even though i'm going to a double party tomorrow: no need to ruin 2 birthday parties at once. Grandpa: we'll miss you.

	earlysunsets02: 07/03/2009 4:53 PM dont ignore any feelings, theyll olny bring a lack of closure. let yourself grieve and dont think that you cant because of your dad. you need him just as much as he needs you. you dont have to compensate just because your mom isnt there.
