My grandfather just died. About an hour and fifteen minutes ago. He was in his mid ninetys and had been suffering from Alzhimers for a while. He had a significant decrease in functioning at the end of December and then again this weekend. We knew it was coming, but it was still a surprise. I was working in the library with friends on a homework assignment when it happened. I got a message from my dad (his son) telling me to call. The memorial service is planned for this weekend. I feel so alone. I don't feel like there is really anyone I can talk to about it... I was going to work on homework tonight, but I don't think that is going to happen. I have to work on a group project tomorrow that is due next week. I just feel numb.
