Got Some Terrible News
7 years ago
There's been some delays and general lack of communication here lately, and I'm here to say why. In December my grandmother suffered a stroke that left her rather incapable of caring for herself. We got her settled in with some care after a few weeks. At that point I thought I was fine to move out of state, generally, in my family, the way things go is someone will have a stroke that does something to their motor skills/cognitive abilities, then they'll live for anywhere from 5-10 years more before some other brain-related ailment takes them finally...
This was not the case, my grandmother had a brain aneurysm shortly after I moved to Atlanta, and after a hectic weekend of missed buses and broken moving vans, I've been back in my hometown for the last week waiting on that final terrible news.
I got that news Via phone call a few minutes ago. My grandmother has passed away, and I find myself somewhat numb by the weight of that. I apologize for delays in communication and production. I'm sorry if I seem distant in the coming days. The only cure for such things is time and I'm trying my best.
I hope all reading this are well, and do wish me luck it's going to be a hard weekend.

I don't know what sort of relationship you had with your grandmother; I sincerely hope it was a good one. I advise you to remember the good times, to cherish the fond memories, and to remember that you are not suffering alone. And if you ever need someone to talk to, you have friends who are willing to listen.
My sincerest condolences. Be brave. The pain won't last forever. I promise.
Sincerely,

Hang in there and do whatever you need to do to be with family and loved ones.
I understand how rough it is to hear about the passing of someone so close. I've delt with a similar situation with someone I knew at school.
Take all the time you need. Please.
....i heard what happened with your grandmother. I...i dont really know what to say. I have lost close family before and it hurts. It hurts a lot. I know that i have no right, and i know my past messages have made me out to be an less than perfect s, but if you ever want to talk, rant, rage, cry or anything i am.always open to it. I.know you dont know me well, but it is what i do.for anyone i consider my friend. Take care qnd take time to grieve, you own no one anything, so take as much as ypu need
hope your memories help you heal in due time.
