My grandmother is very sick. She is 80 yrs. old. she had a series of strokes and seizures that led to paralysis and then not being able to function at all. Basically now her system is shutting down. she's having trouble breathing and she won't urinate or defficate. She can't eat. she's misearable. i hate to see her suffering. My mother, my aunt, and i are the ones that take care of her. this is getting harder to deal with though.

This is a hard thing I know my grandma passed just 2 months ago and I went through the same thing. What you need to do is just sit down let it all out and if you really need to get it out of your system write everything that your feeling down on a piece of paper. People think that if you cry it makes you week but a fact most people don't know is that crying is proved to be healthy for you. So Good Luck!

Is hospice or an agency like them involved? There are grief support groups available, call your local hospital for the location.
See a counselor or therapist for grief counseling, it really does help.
