death and dying

Jan 07, 2008 20:19


My grandfather is dying.  
It'll be soon, but no one is sure exactly when.  
My father and I are going to fly out tomorrow to be there. 
So I won't be around for a while.

I agree. death sucks. But in this case, I'm not so sure. My grandfather is 87, he's lived a long and fulfilling life. He's ready to die. He hasn't really been interested in living for a while now. It is sad, because it leaves us here, but really, my grandfather had a strong faith and he will be with our God now. What could be better. It's different, then when the person is so young and full of life. I am praying for your family as well.

Thanks guys <3
I'm leaving in a couple hours and then I won't have internet...sigh. So we'll see what happens. I don't really know what to expect, and my dad and I are kind of walking into this blind.

I'm sorry, Erin. Regardless of whether someone's had a good life and is ready to die or not, death is still hard on everyone. You and your family are in my thoughts <3
