Just got some bad news....my dads dad has been diagnosed with cancer of the liver and it's spread to his bowel so it's most likely terminal. My dad (his son) passed away from cirrhosis of the liver nearly 2 years ago, I just feel numb at the moment, I don't know how I should react, I don't even know how I feel right now.

I would be happy my father was alive until I was your age, and that he was part of my life for so long. I would cherish every single moment I have with him, because if it is the last - I want them to be good.

Crying can be done later, because honestly in life ... nothing is ever absolute.

My dad is already dead, its his dad that his sick now.
My dads dad is the most selfish man I have ever met, he drinks like there is no other liquid on the planet and he's just an ass hole but somehow I feel like he's the last male connection I have to my dad.

I still say to enjoy the time you have with him. Your grandfather may not be perfect, but he's better than mine who abused me for 12 years and caused such horrible mental issues I may never even get over them.

Under all of that drunkness... he must be as sad as any other person, and that's why he drinks so much. I'm certain it would mean a lot to him if you just reached out and started a few conversations, even if that's all.

I'm sorry this has happened to you. Death and seeing loved ones going through something like cancer is something very hard and saddening. If you wanna talk, pm me.

If it is hard to go visit him, make a few calls to him. You don't have to be face to face with someone just to start/keep a relationship, you can do that over calls or texts or messages as well. If you really want to make a relationship with him, you can do it.
