Next thing I know, some little woman who was visiting her relative came fleeing and told me to come back inside, saying 'something is not right, the doc wants you' pretty obvious what was going on, I was quickly ushered into a side office where a doctor completely destroyed me and treat me like something on the sole of his shoe because I was screaming at him and banging my fists about, I was in a situation where there was only one person in the world I wanted at that point, the only person we know we can turn to in times of need for unconditional love and support, I have never been so pleased to see my mother walk into a room, I may as well have a baby that day, given how fragile and vulnerable I must have been feeling, there is no love like a mothers love...
I have often wondered why in times of need, the one person we cry for is our mothers, ya think it is just because a mother has the right touch to help there kids...
So Marcus, it has been a few months now, things will get better, I promise you that, over time your wounds will heal, you will obviously never fully get over, I haven't and it is 9 years in September for my old granddad, after his funeral, I went to bed that night and stayed in my room till December, only coming when I had to and lost a lot of weight in the process...
At least your nan and granddad are reunited in heaven, take comfort from that...These days people tell me they see him in me, he was intelligent, loved reading books(The only person I know who has read the bible from cover to cover,despite not believing in it, I think he has also read the Qu'ran, Book of Mormon and the Jewish Torah) and liked history and I am the same, although I am not an avid book reader
With my grandad it was really sudden. He had a cerebral hemmerage and that devastated me. I didn't even get to speak to him before he died, and that upset me.
I'm much better than I was last year now, and I deal with it. Thankfully my grandma is still here though
