Yes, I've felt this way. When my best friend died I didn't feel any emotion for a while. Something upsetting such as your grandfather being very ill could be very shocking and so your brain is numbing the emotion as a sort of defense mechanisms. I hope your pdoc can help you work through this
and I hope your grandpa will pull through.
