My grandpa is not expected to live through the night. And it sucks! I cant go see him, my mom is leaving to go to him, my dad is going to work and a baby sitter is coming over to help get my Lil sisters to school. It sucks! He is a WWII Vet, As a purple heart from it and in the past 4 years have flirted with death.

He is so bad the doctors cant find his blood pressure! I cant stand it… It SAX!

Thanks for letting me let it out and for listening,

Jack

Oh my gosh, jack, I am so sorry to hear about this :( To be honest, the world will be losing him just as much as you—a WWII vet is a valuable thing.. It’s a shame he won’t be around to remind us about the evils of hate.

To return back to you, however, I am very sorry that you’re going to suffer this loss tonight. It’s never easy to lose a loved one, and I wish you and your family nothing but the best.

jack, my condolences to you and your family.
My granp died this time last year at 81 also.  The terrible thing was I spoke to him a few days ago and didn’t know it was about to happen. And I will never forget his last words to me.
I got the terrible news the morning i woke up. One of those in the middle of the night/morning calls we hate or afraid to get. 

He was a great guy who i wish i had spent more time with and shared many of his lifetime stories with.

I know how u feel.  The best thing though is that he lived a long and fulfilling one.  take it easy.

My condolences Jack. I lost my granny when I was about 6 or 7. My grandpa really loved my grandma. They went everywhere together. Once my grandma died my grandpa just wasnt joyful energy full person I know. A year later he also died. I can understand what you are going through. Some times I still think about the great times that me and him had. He was a great person. Spent his time out at sea (Marine) .
