Well... today i spent 7 1/2 hours in the hospital with my grandpa. We had to take him to the emergency room again (we took him last tuesday). Hes unfortunately never going to get better, and theyre going to keep him in the nursing home just til they can get things somewhat under control then hes going to the nursing home :-( we've always wanted to keep him from having to go there but unfortunately we have to. im soo upset about it since my grandpa is probably the most important person in my life..... its so hard to see him this way:-(

Oh Gina I'm so sorry to hear that. I went through exactly the same thing and I know it really sucks =/
*tight hugs*
Just try be strong for him and make sure you visit him lots even if it's hard. You may really regret it if you don't spend time with him now.
I'll be thinking of ya weirdo
*more hugs*

omg, i'm so sorry!! i know how hard that is, ive had a couple similiar expiriences over the last couple years. my grandma was diagnosed with cancer and i remember the day i heard that she wasnt going to get better, it was seriously horrible, i didnt stop crying for the longest time. and my friend had been battling cancer for 2 years when they said there was nothing they could do but just send her home, she died on her 17th birthday. and now i'm expiriencing kinda the same thing with my brother... i know how hard it is... knowing someone is never going to get better is horrible, cause you want them to, but there is nothing you can really do. but you cant really concentrate on that, just be glad he's still with you and make the most of it! its the only thing you can do!
if you ever need to talk... i'm here! i dont really know you, but i'll be praying for you and your family.
**Hugs**
oh and one more thing, always say i love you and give hugs! one time when i was visiting my grandma i was leaving and i wanted to give her a hug, but she was eating and i had my hands full so i just thought "i'll give her one next time" and left. that would of been my last chance to and i regret passing it up, even a year later i still do! so just make every moment count with him!

thank u guys so much.... i appreciate it verrry much! i plan on visiting him every second i can, so no worries about that- i dont have a problem being there alll the time, just want to be there as much as i can. Its so hard that my grandpa is pretty nonresponsive and out of it. He has alzheimers, parkinsons and cancer... so his mind isnt there pretty much. but neways- thanks for the support n stuff

Gina i'm so sorry. A very similar thing happened to me: it hurts so much i know. My thoughts are with you, although things may seem so hard right now time will heal it. Take care.
