Yesterday, my step-grandfather collapsed in his garden and died soon after. I'm rather depressed, he was an awesome person and for the few years that I knew him I will be eternally grateful.

I'm staying with my dad for a few days. It doesn't really help that I have important tests coming up. Today I had to beg to one of my teachers to be able to sit a test tommorow instead of today, because I was too distracted to revise over the weekend.

I think I need a few days or possibly weeks from RV, to clear mind and sort my life out a bit.

Until then, farewell, my fellow villagers.


-Nate

Bye nate :(

Sorry to hear about your grandad. It's always hard when you lose somebody you loved.

Hope to see you back soon.

I had my grandfather visit from across the US when I was 8. He died of a heart attack at our house, and I was the one to find him suffering it. I sympathize with you.

Take care, Nate. We'll be waiting for your return.

That's horrible, Nate. I'm sorry to hear about your Grandfather, but on top of that, your tests as well.

But, even if you are over the unfortunate death of your Grandfather, if your grades are dropping it may be a positive idea to take a break from us to bring them up first - we're aren't going anywhere. ;)

Best wishes.

So sorry to hear all that, Nate.

I was in the front hall of my house when I saw my grandfather collapse of a stroke that ultimately took his life in a hospital 3 days later, so I can perfectly empathize with you.

Good luck recovering from the pain and shock, and best wishes while dealing with your loss. Do take a break, as we'll all still be here when you're ready to come back, but school is certainly without a doubt paramount to any internet forum involvement.

I have been posting, but a lot less than usual. I decided to take a day off school because of depression (not related).


His funeral is the day after tomorrow.

Well that just means you're less active, but you're not taking a break
Just sayin'
Anyway.. Time to do my share.

Sorry to hear about your grandfather, Mine passed a year ago, So I think its safe to say i know what its like.
One things for sure, things just wont be the same without him.

I hope your family can manage well.

I held off from replying to this topic for a while because what can you say really?

You have my most profound condolences for your grandfather, and I wish you all the best during your break from RV.
