Leaving for a while
Hi guys,

Couldn't think of a better place to post this.

Anyways,

I won't be around for about a week. Got a phone call at 5am, informing me that my grandmother had suffered a stroke and was admitted to hospital. My parents went to see her. My dad rang me to tell me he was picking me up to see her at about 7.15am. By the time I got there, she had passed away.

Massive bleeding in the brain, or something.

Point being, as an older member of the family, it's my duty to help with funeral arrangements and such.

I'll pop in now and again if I can, but I'll most likely be away for a week or so.

See you guys soon!

Raphael/Tetsuo~

Never a nice thing to hear, the death of a loved one. Have lost both of my grandparents on my dads side. Don't forget crying is OK you loved them it's natural.

To be honest, I haven't cried yet.

Yeah, I'm upset as hell, but I'm doing good. It's my mom who's crying like crazy. And she has every right to be. She just lost a parent.

But yeah, I'm doing good. And the funeral is all sorted and everything, so just waiting for the whole thing to finish now.

Thanks for the posts, guys, really appreciate it. =D

You are a skookum tumtum guy. Imprudent and altruistic - your family I'm sure are proud of you!
