She was 71, I really am shocked about this and I cant sleep or stop crying :(

I completely understand what your going through my grandma died when i was 14 or 15 and the only thing that got me through it was thinking that she's no longer hurting or in pain. My other grandma died late last year and I used the same concept to get me through it. Just go and talk about all the good times you shared with her and keep smiling because she wouldn't want you to cry.

Losing family is the hardest thing to experience in life.

My grandpa died when I was 4, my other grandpa died 15 years before I was born, but I still now how it feels. I still get upset when I think about my grandpa, though the memories are faded, and some aren't even real. I hate forgetting my one grandpa, the one that was alive when I was little, and I hate not getting to meet my other grandpa.. But Patchy, I hope you feel better. It can tough getting over such a tragic loss. Just remember, you have to come to realize that everybody dies, its just part of the natural cycle. It doesn't mean you shouldn't feel upset or try to forget about your grandmother, no, its quite the opposite. You should get your feelings out now and then just go back to focusing on your own life. Don't forget about your grandma and how much she meant to you, but just remember that she's passed on, possibly to a better place. She'll always be there, looking over your shoulder, watching you from afar. She'll always be in your heart, and thats what matters most.

Sorry man, I hope you get some sleep.

All of my grandparents have passed away. My grandpa died like five years before I was born and my other grandpa died when I was 2. My grandma died when I was 12, but she went peacefully, although it was very unexpected. My last grandma died when I was 15, it was less than a week before her 95th birthday. The good thing is that her suffering stopped, and she told her daughter(my aunt) that she was ready to go that day. I got to sing at her funeral so that made me feel good.

Anyway, things will get better. The best thing would be to think of the happy times, and talk to other family members about good times they had with her. Keep your head up.

dude that's terrible. I can't imagine how sad I'd be if my grandma died. I usually live at my grandma's place in the summer or holidays and the day I leave I always feel like crying. I'm very sorry. think about happy memories with your grandma. Hope you feel better

Damn, that's rough. :( I know you've probably heard this everywhere and you probably feel like losing your mind of you hear it again but try to think of the good times. Your grandma wouldn't want to see you in such a state, would she?

And Jack, man, that must have been really hard. The fact that you're able to talk about it shows what a strong person you are.

Sorry for the loss.

I understand. Months ago my Grandpa died the same way. I felt terrible, but at least he died in the most peaceful way possible.
