Today I saw my grandmother, dad's mom, pass away. I was there until the machines were shut off. She passed around 4pm CST.

She wasn't the nicest person so let's just say she didn't win mother of the year award. I'm more concerned for my dad as within the last 3 years 3 people, now 4, have died and he was close to them all.

My father is extremely emotional as am I. I hadn't seen my grandmother in close to a year but it was just tragic watching her deteriorate and seeing my aunts cry.

Can someone please pull a card about my dad, is he going to be ok? I don't know if my father can handle another close death. First he lost his best friend, my aunt's husband, to an aneurism. His death hit me pretty bad as to me he was like my grandfather. Then a year later his uncle loses his battle with lung cancer and 10 months after that, my uncle, his closet brother to leukemia.

I'm concerned for my dad.

Please, even if you can't or won't pull a card, send some positive energy his way to comfort him.

Thank you all!

LostTaurus: thank you for pulling a card for my dad. We buried her today but even though my father was struggling, after we left the cemetery and went to a luncheon, it's like something was lifted off of his shoulders, almost as if he were finally free, if that makes any sense.

Thanks again for the kind gesture.
