By celebrating their lives
Eh when it happened I didn't give a fuck. Just some old people with nothing much to live for.
Do people really mourn their grandparents?
Was not phased by it for the first few days. I got the call and was like 'ok' I then continuted browsing the internet for a few hours. Then all of a sudden I just started crying. For the following days i stayed in bed just crying.
not much you can do
didn't really care desu
felt more or less indifferent to the whole ordeal
I think I have aspergers

I never got to meet my grandpa, but my grandmother has always been there for me. She's the only one that cared when my mother and father neglected me.
She's having problems with her heart she's currently at the hospital and I think this is it
Only met 1 grandma
She was kinda bitchy
She died of cancer
Did not cry at funeral
Hope she died painless in sleep
Continued on with my morning

You're an adult now. You should be at least if you're here. You dont need her protection anymore. She did her job already, she's free to die.
Death is not a bad thing. It's natural. No need to feel sad about it.

I was seven years old and the only one of my siblings who wasn't crying. In fast, I wasn't sad about her dying at all. That's when I realized I wasn't normal, because everybody else was upset but I just felt... nothing.
My grandma on my mom's side was my favorite person ever, when she died my world got dimmer and it hasn't gotten better
I was really close with my grandparents (and a few others of their generation like great aunts/uncles). I waited a while til it didnt hurt so much then started volunteering with old people. There's lots of different stuff you can do, check with local charities that deal with older people. They often need drivers, people to help with events, people to teach various classes (like exercise, computers etc), or just people to chat or befriend. I've found that it really helped, and I'm much better with old people than people my age so its nice for socialising too
My grandparents married when they were 14 and they were together to the very end.
Class acts 2bh. I'll always respect their memory. During times of weakness I just think of them and realize how I'm being a little faggot and stop.
i only knew one, my grandmother that adopted and 'raised' me while constantly threatening to 'get rid of me' and keep my brother so i really didn't give a fuck to be honest family

Look up Will and Ariel Durant. He would've been lynched today.
All of my grandparents are still alive. I'm 21 but I've never actually experienced the death of a family member because everyone in my family is ridiculously long-lived.
Most of my older relatives are in their 90's but still healthy. Many of them will probably live to be 100.

When my last grandparent dies, everyone gets a lot of money. It will be hard to feel bad.
I checked out a long time ago when it comes to family. I'm sure it helps fuel my alcoholism and I'll probably grow bitter and pathetifc but its comfy af in the mean time
Both my grandfathers were already dead when I was born. But my grandma was more like a mother to me, than my actual mother. I don't think I've spent more time with any other person, nor do I think I ever will. At first it was shit but I got over it in a month. My other grandmother I've never met.

I lost my grandma 3 years ago on dec 27th. Growing up she was the only person who ever believed in me. She was honestly the only good person I've ever encountered in my life. It's funny cause when she went in the hospital it's was dec 21 2012. The day the world was supposed to end. Honestly feels like my world indeed ended. I developed a dissociative disorder right after and nothing seems real now.

I was close with one grandmother, but she died in her 80s and fought to the end. So, I didn't cry, I accepted it was coming for some time. But, it was hard. It's been nearly a decade and I still often think about her.
Grandfather on the other side died when I was 20, and I was glad. He treated my mom like shit, beat her, she had serious health problems due to his negligence. but for whatever reason she stayed by his side. I openly laughed as Alzheimer's destroyed his brain.
Other two died too young for me to grasp it, and I barely knew them anyway.
