life help: My uncle died suddently yesterday from a heart attack and my grandad has only got a few days to live. - Help.com

Sincerest sympathies, Keano. There will be grief, but you may be surprised to find moments of joy in fond memories, too. You’re right, absolutely, it’s the natural rhythm of life.

Wow! Maybe you shouldn’t count him out just yet.

Ah, ok. Once the drip’s in, it’s last goodbye time. Are you planning on being in the room with him if there’s notice that he’s going?

my hope is if someone dies they go without pain in peace.

death comes to everyone i have thought about it alot from a young age, the one thing that scares me because i dont know for sure what it is. any other fears i have are tiny compared to it. a long life with little or no regret and siblings to carry on are the best anyone can hope for.

brain (anuyerism) pop just like that, but you cant live each day to the full because if you did that you would not go into work you would spend your time doing something that you find fun/relaxing/etc, unless you are one of the very lucky people who has a job they love.

recently i had almost like an epiphany, it was my attitude about what i consider work and my attide towards it, now when i walk when i talk when i do things that i recognize as stresful i try to slow down (less haste more speed) something a weird looking tipp man said to me years and years ago, it finally made sense, so thats what i try to do doesnt always work but some have said they have noticed an improvement in me.

are you irish

your post asks how you are going to deal with your situation, well your profile says your irish so typicaly either you will either have a very hard time of it or you will supress your emotions both are bad so maybe there is a third way, one that lets you grieve enough so you can live the rest of your life remembering the good times you shared with your loved ones, be strong , if this didnt help i suggest you look up the situation in some poor war torn country where they have horrible stuff happening eveyday, and thank god that you live in this country.

just dont let your situation smother you, good luck

i hope some of what i said helped
