Death about to strike the family

hey guys, i got a call last night from my sis and she told me my grandpa was back in the hospital. he has a disease thats just a slower form of lou g's disease. this time hes not coming back out...i am flying up to see him tomorrow to see if i can see him one last time while he's alive. im not even sure if i will make it in time. hes on constant morphine so he doesnt go out in pain. the disease just makes you lose all your motor functions over a period of time. sucks man,,,,,this is going to be the first death of a family member for me. damn....

im sorry to hear that :(

hope you get there in time :)

wow...

my sincere condolences for your loss bro :(

let us know how it goes

Sory to hear that, dude, I feel for you :(

I remember when my grandfather died a few years ago, he was in Italy and I couldn't take the time to go see him one last time... When I went back there after he had died, it felt so strange for him not to be there, and even 7 years later, I still think of him and miss him. But make sure to keep the good memories especially, at least you'll be a little happier when you think of him :)

That's sad news, slip, I wish you strength during this difficult time :)

Res...

STRENGTH AND PEACE MY FRIEND

Yeah 4 real man i feel for ya. Hardest thing ever for me was when my grandpa died. He raised me.

Man i remeber when my grandpa died(lung cancer) i was only like 9 but i remeber walking down the hall to go see him laying in the bed, i was crying so bed i couldnt help it, i still miss him so much, good luck slip and i hope you never forget him.

appreciate it all guys....he is supposed to have some operation today to see if they can ease some of the pain in his chest. they say its worth a shot bc theres nothing to lose.....

Sorry to hear that slip.

That shit's tough. Smoke lotsa weed.

Very sorry to hear that Slip. Just think of all the great things that he's probably seen and enjoyed. Plus he's probably enjoying life a lot more on morphine. I'm not trying to joke or be disrespectful. I never met any of my grandparents before they passed on, so I envy you for that. Stay strong and much peace for your grandfather.

:( It's very hard to face the loss of a loved one, sorry for your pain, I wish you and your family, health & happiness :)

Family are the most important people in our lives and to lose one of them is like losing a part of ourselves. I offer condolences to you and your family and hope your grandpas pain eases before the final journey.

yeah i am flying out in a few hours. he was conscious for a while yesterday and my mom let him know i was coming today. i just hope i make it in time. they took him back to his house after the surgery yesterday with the inhome nurse for the last couple of days. i will be back in here on sunday afternoon. later guys, and thanks.

The opposite of love is not hate,
it's indifference.
The opposite of art is not ugliness,
it's indifference.
The opposite of faith is not heresy,

My thoughts are with you and yours,

that sucks, my grandfather died this past september so i know how it feels.

I don't know what to say...it's after 9 PM, I hope you made it time. But if not, I know he heard you.

Sorry to hear that, man. Death is a natural thing, though. It's good to know he's not going out in any pain.

That sucks Slide, prayers go out for you and ur family. I have never lost someone close to me luckily, but I have a buddy in a crappy situation he found out that both his parents who happen to be young (40s) have terminal cancer and arent expected to live long. Man, I cant like describe the empathy I feel for him and his parents. The sadder thing is he has three small brothers that are just in elementary/middle school man. Argh man shit is fucked up

dude, im sorry to =hear that. it must suck.
i hope you made it out there in time.
best wishes to you and your family.
peace :)

ypdate: made it up there in time. around.....10:30ish i think. he never came out of the coma but i got to talk to him. stayed there utnil about 2:30am and went to go get some sleep. thoght he would make it until saturday. he ended up dying at 7:45am as i was getting up to go see him again. im just glad i made it up there. thanks guys for your niceness.
