My grandfather died today..
12/1/1920-8/19/2007
It's so unbelievable. Probably because he's all the way across the world. I'm scared to absorb the reality of it all.
He was sick for the past week and died a quick, painless death. Last night(which was 6AM here) he tried to get up to have some soup, fell back onto his pillow, took a few calm breaths and just died.
The pain's coming in waves. I don't know what to do. .
He's gone. I will never be able to have the conversations I wanted to have with him about being a great professor and everything he accomplished in his lifetime. I'll never see him again. Ever. I shall never hear his voice. He's gone FOREVER. Wow.
Wow. . . .
I just want to crawl into my bed and cry. I think I'll do that. Sigh. .
