Chris,

 

I am praying for you and your family during this time. I was raised by my grandparents, so I know best how special grandparents are. Your family has already endured loss with great suffering. God knows how painful it is to standby helplessly and watch the suffering. Maybe this time, He knew that this was the best way (for everyone) to take your Papa to heaven.

 

When I lost my 11 year-old son to cancer two years ago, I went through so many emotions - and I still do. Whenever I have bad days or hit rough spots, I think of great memories to bring me back around. I also consider what a great kid Sam was, and if I was God, I would have picked him for the Angel Corral too. Your Papa will never be far from you because his spirit always lives on in your memories and your heart.

 

Don't let anyone tell you how to grieve or how long you should grieve. It's a very personal matter and we all heal in our own time. Lean on God - He will comfort you and promised that His strength is made perfect in your weakness.

Oh I'm so sorry to hear this. A loss of this magnitude is always so devastating. While you and your family are in pain now, take comfort that he went peacefully and he is now related with his love. In the meantime, I hope it gets easier for you. I'm sure he knows just how much you loved him.

So sorry Chris, it's always devastating when things like this happen. There is comfort that there was no pain or suffering, but I'm sure that it doesn't help much right now... hang in there! My thoughts are with you and your family.
