just deal with it one day at a time, and never always keep to yourself. my grandmother was very close to me (like a mother to me) and i would always shut people out of my life just because i felt it was unfair that she died so suddenly and missed out on moments where i wished she was there. i went from being a confident person to a shy one, and i put on a lot of weight, and that was where a lot of bad things began happening to me, so much so that i couldnt stick up for myself and felt so alone. in the end, i regretted being able to talk to people and most of all having a good time with my friends and family, and it affected me on a emotional level as well as a psychological level. i guess what im trying to say is that to live your life the best way that u can and dont let something like this bring you down because then you know u can get through this with the support of others around u.

I don't know how old you were when your grandmother died, and I really don't know much about the situation, but I'm assuming that since you were disappointed by her death, that you were close to her, and doesn't matter what age you were when she passed away, it would be a disappointment to you. I don't know what you believe when I say the word God, or Bible, but this is what I have learned from my study of the Bible.
Did you know that God created us to live forever? That was his intention when he created Adam and Eve, but when they disobeyed him and listened to Satan, they passed onto you and me, and your grandmother, death. God told Adam and Eve they could eat from every tree in the garden, but the one in the middle. In the day they ate from the tree, they would die, and they did. Adam was 900 some odd years old, and the Bible doesn't say how old Eve was. But 1 Peter states that a day with God is a 1000 years, so that is exactly what Adam lived, a day in Gods' eyes. How is this comforting to us? God also gave us a ransom for what Adam took away from us, with a hope to live forever on a paradised earth. When your grandmother died, the Bible speaks of death as being asleep, like Lazarus was, when Jesus resurrected him. Because jesus could resurrect people, back to the earth, shows us that your Grandmother has the same hope to be resurrected back to the earth, a paradised earth to a life of judgement or life. My Grandmother died when I was in my 30's, and my father died when I was in my 20's. Both deaths were a real disappointment to me as well. But I have the hope of seeing them again in a paradised earth, that Jesus Christ died for. When your grandmother is resurrected, she won't have the problems that made her die now, old age, sickness, accidents, or whatever was the reason she died. When the earth is a paradise again, we won't have all the maladies that we have now, as in Revelations 21:3-4 gives us the hope of no more dying, crying, sickiness etc. So that is my hope, to see my Grandmother, and my Father in a much better world, without all the problems you and I are left to face now. Since we are the ones alive, we are actually feeling sorry for ourselves because they are no longer in our lives, and because God put "everlasting life, and not dying" into the hearts of man. This is one of the reasons why we are so disappointed when someone we love dies.

I remember when they called from hospital to inform us that my grandmother has died, on TV was Whitney Houston's song "I wanna dance with somebody". I connected that song with my sorrow and I could never listen it again. Recently it was on the radio, I heard it after 100 years, I was in the car with my boyfriend and I started to cry. I lost my grandmother some 8 years ago, and it was very big loss for me. You will never forget her, and you will cry, but trough the time, it will not be so often. Life has its own ways with it, many other things you will have in mind. The point is to keep your good memories and always love her in your heart, like I do. You will find your own way how to deal with it.
