Not in a good place right now.
10 months ago
Yo. Listen to what this Yoshi has to say.
I got back from the hospital today. No, I'm fine, don't worry. However, one of my family members... is in a really bad shape.
Here's what's going on:
Last year, during thanksgiving, I went to see my grandparents. I had found out that my grandpa had cancer in his bile duct. When I saw him, he looked really tired and low energy. He hadn't been eating or anything and it was really affecting him. So, they decide to do chemo, but given his age, the chances of it working were.... practically slim to none.... like roughly 2%. Well, fast forward to December and I get told that the cancer is spreading through his body. So basically... it's terminal at this point. His stomach began to distend from all the fluids in his body which started to affect his kidneys and liver to the point where they're slowly shutting down. So.... he made the choice of going into hospice care until his time comes. I just visited him at the hospital today..... and I nearly broke down and cried when I saw him. I didn't want to be there, but I need to face it head on. The way I held his hand and felt it shake as he lied there.... it was heart wrenching.
So... please.... I need your support when the time comes. I'm just... really upset right now.

Take whatever time you need to breathe and process.
Grief is normal.
