my other grandmother was found dead in her house today. My father (it's his mother) got a call from her neighbor telling him she found my grandmother dead. She wasn't ill, other than a recent cold, so we have no idea what happened yet.
I'm 40 and I've had my both sets of grandparents almost my life. My g/pa (husband of this g/ma) died a few years ago, but that was the 1st time I'd ever had a death in my family like that..
I
if you believe in the 'death comes in 3's'... My cousin killed himself this past summer (right around my daughter's b-day), my 1st g/mother died this past halloween(the day after my b/day), and my grandmother today (my other g/pa's 90th b-day) .. so the 'three's' have their quota..
damnit!
The g/pa I'm closest to is all that's left..I've never lived in a world without these people..
I'm sorry
