Lost my grandpa to an anerism the other day and the last story he told me a few weeks ago was how he use to skip school every monday, wednesday and friday and go skiing up at Snoqualmie in Washington. He said it must run in the family.

He then proceded to get mad at me because I never invited him up with me. while getting mad at me because I never texted him. haha Now im regretting that I didn't do either.

For those of you who have lost a loved one, how did you cope?

+k for nice helpful ideas.

+vibes,
i lost my sister, about 8 months ago, I just thought of the good times we had, and with family around so much during that time, we all talked and told stories about the great things she did for us. make sure to have family around a lot, it helps.

Vibes. My cousin died of an o.d not too long ago. Sucks real bad espescially because my parents had not told me what he had been going through for the last year (never told me he was in rehab). I just don't dwell on it too much. Don't completley try to forget about it either, accept it and continue to live your life. Thats what he would have wanted right, maybe even dedicate a couple days a year to skip school and go ski with him in your mind. Be strong, you'll get through it!

vibes to you

he sounds like a well cool guy. I think that its awesome how he left you with all those memories, and consider yourself lucky to have had such a good relationship with him. Many people (myself included) dont get the chance to really get to know their grandparents, and when its too late one realises that they actually were pretty cool people with rad stories to tell... such a shame when epic memories like that go to waste.

i still think of mine alot, he was truly one of the chillest persons i've ever know, i still remember how when i was a kid he'd try and pay the busdriver not enough money and make it seem as if he was old and senile and couldn't count the money anymore, while in fact he was still very bright :)
it worked almost every time :)

Stop being a dick. Respect you jerk.

Vibes. He sounds like he was a great man, and a lot of fun.
