My Grandma has been my joy since i was little and now she isn't doing so well. She is about to start dialisis and im afraid she is going to pass away. If she passes away i don't know what i would do. i couldn't go on living without her. She has been there for me for 12 years (im 12 years old) I pray every night and then icry myself asleep thinking about her Wonderful face and what it is going to be like without her.Do you know any suggestions on what i should do in a situation like this one. ( im not thinking about killing myself if thats what you think. i would never do that)

First off honey I'm sorry you are experiencing one of the bitter times in life. Second people life on dialisis for years and years and years on end. A guy on my street has been on it for 3 years. So chances are she isn't going to up and die.
Second let me pray this for you. Father we come to you in your holy name and we thank you for all that you are doing in our lives and for helping us in remembering that you are the miracle worker of all miracles and that your love bounds us to your will. Forgive us our sins and bring us peace and joy so that we are able to withstand the hardships that are placed in our way and help us to remember that here on earth is only a short time and that our constant joy will be with you in heaven and all those we love.
Bring us peace in knowing you are watching over us, protecting us and healing us. Help this young lady to deal with her grandmas failing health and help her to be a great support to her grandmother in your name. Let peace overcome her and know she has a place with you and here on earth. That she is needed and is meant to play a great role. Help to prepare her way and to guide her. Dry her tears of sadness and worry and fill them with love and gratitude. Help her to continue to enjoy her grandmother and her grandmother her for years to come. In Jesuse Name Amen and Thank you for your love.

Death is a part of life. It's sad to think that one day a loved one is not going to be around but it is inevitable. When faced with a death, people take comfort in different things to help get through the rough parts. Some people look back and recognize that the person lived a full and happy life and celebrate the life and the impression it left on others. Others believe in a paradise where people who have passed on go to live another existance. Others see death as an end to a person's suffering. Depending on your religion or upbringing you may have other beliefs.
When my grandmother passed away when I was 8, I was devastated but she had been sick and when she finally went, I knew it was for the best even though I was so young. It's been 20 years and I still cry from time to time but I know that she loved me very much and would want me to live my life to the fullest and be happy.

First and foremost my prayers go out for you and your Grandma. You need to try and be the same happy girl she loves during this tough time. She probably needs that comfort in knowing that you are her "angel". Try to focus on all the wonderful things about her instead of the fear of losing her. There are good chances she'll recover and live many more years. If not the last thing you want is for her to suffer. If it's her time you have no control; however, you are a reflection of her so be proud that you have been molded into the person you are because of this wonderful woman. She will live forever if you carry her torch in your heart and actions. Good luck!!.

Pray and spend time with her. Life is filled with loss - it is a fact of life we all have experienced. You will learn to live life without her -- and you're able to do that because she'll always be in your heart. Also, just because she's on dialysis doesn't mean she'll die any time soon -- there are people who are on dialysis for a long time before they pass. Take care.

This may be hard to understand now, but it will make since later....you will go on without her.
Enjoy what she has done for you and what she has given you. Try to be as optimistic as possible. If worse comes to worse....remember the good times. Do what you can do to be positive, avoid the negative part of it...it gets you no where. I've been there.

Just think would you want her to keep going through the pain and sickness or be in peace with god. my grandma was my bestfriend she died 2 years ago and I felt good because she was no longer on the machines and no longer hurting. she looked like she was finally in peace after 6 years of fighting. I do miss her everyday but i know she is looking down on me. Good luck honey just remember she will always be in your heart.

People can live for a long time on dialysis. Enjoy the time you have with you and don't worry about the future.
