My granny died this morning

#1
I was never close to my granny, because she's all the way in China and i grew up abroad. I've met her a few times and spoken to her a handful of times. I am not that affected by her death but i do feel a bit sad. I am concerned about how my mother will be affected. I don't think I could have done any more for my granny. I visited her when i could etc. I never knew her that well, but she was always the nice gentle type. Cute , like my mother. and hopefully something i inherited too.

But i am a bit shocked. just quietly shocked. i cant believe thats it. thats the end. like shes gone now, forever and ill never see her again. we all knew she was very sick and my mother flew over about a month ago to go see her. We all knew that. its just we always thought there was a possibility she would get better you know. at least, thats what i thought. or hoped.

tonight i will go to the church and light a candle for her. not religious but will say a small prayer. I might light a candle for my mother too during these difficult times.

may she rest in peace (my granny)

Hugs bubble even if you are not close to someone it can still really effect you when a close family member passes. Thinking of you take care and stay safe.

Oh Bubble, I'm so sorry to hear that.
Even though you feel like you didn't know her well it's the impact it has on your mum and therefore the rest of the family.

Sending hugs and thoughts your way xx

I’ve just seen your post hun. I’m so sorry for your loss. There’s no words of comfort I can give that you haven’t already said yourself. I think your idea of going to the Church is lovely and even if you’re not religious it will allow you to have some quiet time to yourself to start grieving and reflect on your memories of her.

You know where we are if you need us. Take your time and try to find solace in the fact that I can definitely say you have inherited the cute, gentle and nice traits you remember in her. I’ve no doubt she must have been very proud of you. It’s so nice that you’re thinking of your mum at this difficult time, but make sure you take care of yourself as well.

May your Granny rest in peace. {{Hedgehugs}} Bubbly. X

Sorry to hear about your loss Bubble. My condolences to you and your family. Maybe draw some comfort from the fact that she is no longer suffering but is now at peace.

Thoughts are with you, my friend.

It's never easy losing somebody, it always affects us in some way (however small) when we lose family. Maybe reflect on your surviving family and take solace in the fact you still have loving and supportive family close by who love you. There'll always be a hole there. But time heals all wounds. My thoughts are with you and yours at this time.

I'm sorry you hear about the passing of your granny. She sounds like a wonderful woman that your family loved very much but was just separated by distance. Peace be with you & your mother during this time, bubbles.

Hugs Bubblebear. It is not easy to lose a relative, even if you were not close. Stand by your mom now. She may really need you. And lighting a candle at Church. Very nice!
