    my granda died suddenly yesterday. he was more like a father to me than a grandfather, they looked after me everyday while my mam worked. I was holding his hand when he died but he wasn't concious when we got to the hospital. he's always been there for me and I don't know what to do now.

    Hey im so sorry to hear that you're grandad passed away. I lost my mam about tree months ago and i just take comfort in knowing that I was there for her and that she knew we all loved her. I'm really close with my grandad aswell and its hard to see him grieving about his child. There's nothing anyone can really say to make you feel better at the moment. Grieving is something that you have to go through yourself and as much as your friends or family may try and take some of the pain away they really can't but you will feel better. Just try and keep your composure and be with you're family and friends. You may feel when you're ready that you would want to speak to someone outside the family like a counselor..I did it and it helped me get a lot of things off my chest. Take care of yourself x

    AvaKinder, I'm so sorry.

    Just give yourself some time to come to terms with your loss. Speak to people if you need to or get some time on your own if you need to do that. Just look after yourself.

    All the best.
