Long story short, I chose to stay at home the first year of college. At the end of the first year, my grandmother (who lived in town) got sick and I decided I couldn't leave because my family needed me. She died in October of my junior year and I really couldn't leave then. Now, I've gone after my masters and I'm finally done with school. I feel it's past time to move out of my parents' house, but now my granddad is sick and the doctors say his heart could go out at any time. I feel bad because I still want to move out. I need to be on my own for a while before I get married next summer and want badly to have that experience. My worry is that my dad won't want me to or that he'll feel bad that I stayed home for my mom when her mom died, but not for my dad when his dad died. What should I do? (link)

If I were you I would stay. Your dad's dad only has a few time left and your family will appreciate very much the time you spent with them. After everything and all the time spent you will have a happy heart and peaceful life to continue and enjoy with your boyfriend as you move out later and get married. God bless you and your family.

That's good advice. But we don't know for sure that he's dying. He'll have a procedure done on monday that will hopefully save him, so if everything goes okay, I'll still move out as planned. If not, I'll stay for about a week until the funeral and everything is over, and then go. It might be too soon, but if I don't go now, ther might be a bigger reason not to go later,
