Lost my grandad 8 months ago. The grief is just hitting.

You may find some comfort in knowing you are not alone.

Hello chlorachelxo, so sorry for the loss of your grandfather…i lost my husband in March..i have 2 children and 2 grandchildren…as grandparents we truly love our grandchildren.,they are my world. They keep me going after the loss of my husband, .my husband was crazy about them, he would take them fishing, to parades, would buy them whatever they wanted.. and they loved him in return ..they miss their grandpa..they are still young. 10 and 4,..they don’t talk about him, i think they don’t know how to cope with his loss. I feel its very important that they realize that it’s ok to talk about him, cry, and remember the happy times….your grandfather was probably a big part of your life, honor him by remembering him, talk about him, go on with your life im sure your grandfather is smiling down on you…I feel my husband still watches over us especially our little ones. Take care and God bless you ![]()
