My grandpa just died!! please answer this question!!!?

Question

my grandpa just died this morning and my mom just went to the airport to go see the family, what should i do???

Answer 1

Cry. It's abit straight forward but I guess it's the best thing to do. Get all your feelings out - it makes you feel ALOT better the next few days. Talk to your friends about it but don't bring it up alot, It makes you even more upset. :( x

Answer 2

Don't have a party

Answer 3

this just happened to me recently too. what i did is to surround myself with my family and my really really good friends. actually my best friend went with me to the funeral because i couldn't handle it on my own. And crying and talking to someone actually does help. trust me.

Answer 4

You can grieve, as others have said. Talk to your minister, priest or rabbi, if you have one.

In a couple of weeks, after the shock has worn off, ask your brothers, sisters and first cousins if they would write up 1 - 3 pages of their favorite memories of him. Put them all in a memory booklet and print off a copy for everyone. The ideal reminiscence would be something mildly funny or having a moral lesson (or both), something that the others might not know about, and would show him in a good light.

Answer 5

Be kind don't take things that are said to you personally cause your family and people that knew your Grandpa are going to be feeling really raw and vulnerable. As for you talk about him remember the good times forget if any bad times and hold on to your Mum she will know how bad / sad you must be feeling, with love,  patience & time the hurt will ease.

But above all else do not bottle it up cry and if you can go outside and howl with the "dogs, cats wolves whatever" but release that inner turmoil.

God bless and take care

Answer 6

hug lots and lots of people. hugs always make me feel better.

Answer 7

You should talk with a friend about it.

Answer 8

clean up the house, take out the garbage, put something in the crock pot for supper.  do the small things to help out your family

Answer 9

Seek comfort with those you love who also loved him. Spend time with your family to reflect on fond memories of your grandpa, what your grandfather meant to each of you, and how you will miss him,  It will be painful, and you need closure, and the best way to do that is to talk.

Answer 10

I would suggest letting your feeling through. Do not be afraid to show you cared or even cry. Losing a family member is hard, but becomes more so when people try to hide their feeling or no longer talk about the dearly departed. Perhaps share you thoughts with your mom, and grandma if she is still around. Knowing you still want to remember him, and the good times will mean a lot to them. Offer to help out and give comfort, but most of all remember just because someone died, does not mean they no longer exist. The worst thing you can do is act like he was never around, sounds crazy but it happens.
