i just want to cry


Question Posted Tuesday February 20 2007, 5:36 pm

I found out a few hours ago that my grandma isn't doing very well. She had a surgery on her hand the other day and since then she has passed out, felt dissy and felt really sick. Everytime I think about it I want to cry. I am so scared something really bad is going to happen to her. What should I do?

I'm so sorry!

There's nothing you can do to control the situation. But I want you to understand that your grandma probably needs to be in high hopes for her. Things happen and we don't know why, but if there is one thing you can do, you can keep her comforted by your words.

You really should cry about it and think about it first. This will not make you forget about it, but it will ease the pain a little bit if you give yourself time to cope. Find something you like to do such as taking a walk or writing, or drawing.

After you give it some time, try and lift your grandma and your family's spirits. They are going to need someone to stay positive. Encourage her to talk to her doctors and make sure that you ask what you can do to make your grandma comfortable.

If you're religious, keep praying!

Here's What Could be Wrong:

After reading this again, I just want to ask you if she is in the hospital currently?

It doesn't look like it would be too serious. I'm thinking that her blood pressure may have dropped from the surgery and she needs to get more blood. OR she may have an infection. So definitely talk to her doctor and ask that she be checked for those things. Hopefully she is on IV fluid so that she can recover.

Infection or loss of blood is probably it. But I'm not 100 percent sure.

I will definitely keep her in my thoughts!

Hang in there!

Write down how you feel, it always helps me. It's like pouring your emotions & finding a simple solution to a burden lifter. Cry if you need to, running away from the pain makes everything worse for longer trust me! Once I rain away from pain for such a long time, I had weird dreams, later I found out it was because I was running away from my sadness & emotions. If all else fails, talk to somebody about how you're feeling, or pray to God to help you get through this. You'll feel better, it's ok. But remember one thing: What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger. In other words, the more you're put through in your life, the easier it is to put up with it. Good luck, I hope your grandma's ok, you and your grandma are in my prayers.

AWWW! Readiing yourr question...only made me wanna cry! My advice to you would be think postitve. You could pray for your grandma...annd hope she feels better...you can also take huge breaths wen u wanna cry. Think about somethingg else. Spend as much time with your grandma as posible. Give her cards. Give her stuff. So next time you want to cry... think about how cool it'd be if you were able to see her agian. Do everythingg possible to help her. If she needs anything let her know your there and that you love her very much !!! Dont worry about it! She'll get better dont worry. Im sure she will. Ill pray for her as i hope you do too!
=) give her a (get well soon hug from me!!)

My friend just went through a similar situation. All you can do is be there for her and your family. You have to comfort your family and let them comfort you when you feel sad. A friend would also help, I know me and my friend helped our best friend through this situation. Talking about this situation could also help you understand it more. When you are alone, just try your best not to think about it, but don't completely block it out of your mind (if that makes sense). And pray. As cliche as that sounds, praying sometimes helps ease the pain. Good luck and I wish your grandmother luck too.
