    ahh I'm so sorry...I know there's probably something appropriate to say, but I don't know what that is...just that I'm sorry! :cry:

    I'm sorry to hear that. My grandfather is currently in a coma and probably will never wake up. It's rough thing to go through.

    i feel you :(
    my grandfather had a near fatal heart attack around midterm time. they had to shock him 6 times in order for him to live. it didn't actually hit me though until i saw his jacket which was cut open down the front so they could shock him.
    you'll get through this, and no need to feel sorry for talking about it here, we'll be there for you :)
    hang in there.. *hugs*

    hey everyone I just got home from the hospital...first I wanted to say thank you for your concern and your appreciation- in times like these I really do know why pearl jam has the best fans in the world.

    He was 78 years old and always wanted to die on his porch (which he did). He got the mail and I don't know if he fell asleep or not but the EMTs momentarily revived him but he never regained consciousness. It was very unexpected but again I just wanted to say thank you for your concern. Couldn't think of a better outlet to express yourself...even in times like these

    awwww, i feel for you! my grandpa died around this time 3 years ago.
    it was right before i was going to graduate high school, which was incredibly hard since my grandfather was always so proud of my success in school... so it was hard fo rhim not to be there.


    hang in there!!!!!!
    you'll never get over it, if you were close anyways, but it does get easier i think :)
    live pearl jam is best pearl jam

    the death of my grandfather isn't something that you or anybody else should take sarcastically. you were way out of line and took my words way out of context. plain rude.

    ty haffa and element...it really does help-

    Hope your doing okay yp.

    Imo, you really shouldn't even acknowledge such an ignorant and immature comment. Obviously, the person has serious issues.
