I know how it feels bro, I lost my grandfather last year only a week before I was due to fly out to Canada to see him.
My only advice that I can give to you is to talk about it with someone if you feel up to it, because it can be really hard to deal with if you just bottle it up inside.
Best of luck with everything.

i'm sorry to hear about your loss, but try to realize that it's just a natural part of life...there's nothing we can do to prevent death and most of the time it's a relief of pain...so what's wrong with that?
I totally agree with you, man. I was gonna say something similar, but didn't know just how to say it.

Thanks again everyone.
sorry about the whole situation.
Growing up I had both of my grandparents on my fathers side and my grandfather on my mothers side pass away in the last 10 years.
It was very difficult for me to conceptualize this idea of separation from your loved ones as I hadn't seen them all that much in my life because of the distance living abroad etc.
I hope you'll make it through this and come out a stronger person.
