My grandfather?

11.13.09 Asked by babyangel22 about 1 year ago, 5 answers.

I'm spending time with my grandparents out here in Cali.. my grandpa is in his 80s.. just a few weeks ago he's been feeling lightheaded and dizzy. He's now even lazy to go out and walk around. He used to wake up early in the morning eager to get...

outside.. but now he's in no mood to do that. I'm scared that his life is almost over..

There's something wrong with him. I know that he's had surgery before and there's something wrong with his stomach.. and like it has something to do with bags.. I'm not sure. I'm scared to ask about it, I'm not so sure I really want to know.. but I'm really concerned about him..
I do know that he has diabetes and something else that he has to take medicine for.

My aunt told me that she doesn't think he's going to live very long and that when he leaves us, he'll be happy, he won't have to suffer anymore.

I'm scared though, it's really making me upset and sad. I've never had a family member leave me. My grandpa has taken care of me all these years, he's like a father to me..

I'm not sure what my question is.. but should I be worried about this situation?

I say ask him, because then you'll know better about it. when one of mine got sick once I asked him about it.

You know hun.. death isn't bad for a man his age. You shouldn' worry beause even after he dies, he'll be with you and your family forever.

You may want to take him to a doctor, but no matter what the doctor says, don't worry too much.

Maybe Old Age is just kicking in. Enjoy him while he is here. After he is gone, you'll still feel him around.

Just enjoy your time with him right now - keep him comfortable - make some more memories with him and think about what you'd like to tell him if he wasn't here - you have that opportunity now - be Thankful for this time together - all of us will face the end of our road eventually - Faith can sustain us...Take Care !!
