My granpa died recently & somehow word leaked out to everyone whose remotely in my life.
The first thing to get straight is I loved my Gramps yes, but he lived on the other side of the country so I hardly knew him. People however don't seem to grasp the idea that I'm not in unbearable pain at the death & seem to think it their personal duty to inform me that though I'm most certainly the most miserabe thing on the face of this planet at the moment to stand strong, do I want them to clean the house & cook the family's meals while Mom's away, anything to ease the burden off my back... ALL DAY today at church I've had people come up to me, getting in my face, rubbing my back stroking my hand & saying they know I'm in a lot of pain but don't worry, life will go on, how are you doing about the loss of your gandfather, isn't it a tragety he had to die, ALL THE TIME STANDING MUCH TO CLOSE FOR ANYBODY'S COMFORT LET ALONE MINE!!!
(To be continued...)
