Grandpa

[keithy_19]

I know I have a lot of stupid adolescent garbage that I clog this thread with, but to get serious.

My grandpa was taken into the hospital today. I don't know what's going on. Apparently he hasn't been eating or drinking and is so weak he can't get out of bed. He is also old(80's) and suffers from arthritis and suff alzheimers.

I've never really been close to him, mostly because my family isn't really close with our extended family. And the fact that he never was all there when I was a kid.

I just ask for your prayers. My family would appreciate it.

You've got our prayers keithy. To you, and your family.

Try and find some time to be with him. If he is under the weather, it will probably mean a lot. Make your peace with him.

God Bless.

Girlfriend in a Coma

Hey Keithy I know how you feel. My grandfather on my dads side died when I was young. I really didnt understand death but I have fond memories of him even to this day. Now I lived and grew up with both my grandmothers. I loved them with all my heart. I was always able to go to my grandma for anything, and that's the relationship we had. When they passed, first my dad's side grandmother, then about 5 - 8years later my moms side grandmother. Well when they passed it was heart breaking to me.

Now my grandfather on my moms side, my last living grandparent, is really sick. Till he was 83 years old he was out in his garden. It's hard seeing him now in and out of the hospital. Not strong enough to walk to the dinner table. It sucks.

Just dont dwell on it. It will be tough when they pass but you have to retain any good memories of them and use it as way to better your life.

He's been sick that long. Damn.

Maybe you could ask a family member how he was like before he got sick. You'll learn alot of things about him that you may have not known before.

Keep the faith alive.

hey keithy its very important that you do make time for him or youll really regret if later, my grandma died early october this year.i was really close to her but hadnt seen her for a couple of months because of my living arrangments. it will make a world of difference to him and you if you go and see him. best wishes to you and your family

I went to see him tonight. My grnadma was there too. They're saying it's just a bad cold, but when you're older, it can turn bad. He seemed surprised that me and my brother showed up. He was pretty out of it though, but I think it was nice that I went to see him.

Well, he hasn't had alzheimers that long, it's just that we were neevr close. My dad was treated kinda bad, they provided for him, but still. Now, as my grandparents get older, we've been trying to spend more time with them.

I'm sorry to hear about your grandfather Keith. Spend as much time as you can with him iand your grandmother if you're feeling bad about the fact that you've never been close with your extended family.

My grandpa is dying, and when he's gone, I will have the comfort of knowing that while he was alive and well, he was there to help raise me and I spent a lof of time with him. Then when he started to get sick later on in my life, I helped care for him everyday. Even now when he doesn't know who I am in the home, I still go to see him because I love him.

Don't let your family situation stop you from doing what you think is right, because regret if forever.

I know what you mean moe. Wait, Moe? Holy shit. Hey there sir!

And thanks for the words, but I'm sorry for your situation. It's hard to get over to their house, since they live in since they live a few towns away. I could try.

No matter what happens, Keithy, you'll pull through. Just be there for your grandfather, no matter how close the two have or have not been.

My prayers are with you and your family Keithy. Both of my grandfathers died within a week of each other when I was three, so I never got to really know either of them. So maybe spending some time with him would be good. I have no memories of mine other then some photos.

My moms dad died when she was 16 or 17, can't remember. She told me he was a republican who liked liquor and did his best for the family. He owned the Kless Diner, which is still in Irvington, but a little different now since it was sold. I would have loved to know him.
