Both my grandparents died within one month 4 moths ago. My other grandfather who I lived acorss the street from died when I was ten. I don't remember some things about him but not a whole lot. I remember more when he was sick. He was sick for a year with brain cancer. It has always bothered mt but when my grandparents died it really started to get to me about my other grandfather. Why over 20 years later do I feel like he just died and have the urge to hang on to his stuff that was passed down to me.??? I feel like I have lost all 3 of my grandparents within 4 months even though one has been gone for over 20 years??? Is this normal??? To grieve 20 years later???

You may think this answer is crazy... But I really think that your grandfather that passed over 20yrs ago just wanted you to know that he was thinking of you & concerned about your grief of loosing your other grandparents. I believe he is telling you that they (all of them) are OK now! And that he misses you as much as you miss all of them... He is with you all the time and more so now that you are grieving for the loss of these people that you truly love... There is more to say on this subject, and I'll leave it up to you if you want to contact me... Be gentle with yourself!

Yeah...it works in mysterious ways. The death of someone else can bring up lots of emotions and thoughts about unrelated people or things. You were only a child when your Grandfather died and it would have been hard to comprehend what that meant. You have probably just relised what it means now that you are older.

Yes it is normal especially since you were young when you lost your first. Young people do not grieve like adults and now you are going thru the grieving process of all three. I am sorry for your loss.
