Please pray for my family

[ryan840]

My grandfather passed away, we're not even sure how or when it was yet because he lived alone in TN (600 miles away). He left behind my grandmother who is in a nursing home with Alzheimers and he was the only person she still knew. I'm just really worried about my dad because of the way he deals with things, and for my grandma because I don't think we'll be able to move her up here near us and now she'll be completely alone. The past few years have been horrible for my grandparents and I hate that things have ended this way. I know they pretty much brought it on themselves by moving so far away and refusing to move back when we asked them to (once things started going badly) but they shouldn't have had to live/die like this. They had no friends in TN, they were literally alone except for when we came to visit. I haven't seen them in two years (we had planned a trip for later this month when we found out he had cancer but he asked us not to come because he wasn't up to it), and it's been almost as long since I've talked to them. My mom talked to my grandpa every week and my dad emailed him regularly, that's basically how we knew something was wrong. I loved my grandpa and will miss him, but the thing that bothers me most is the way things went. Please send prayers and pixie dust for my dad and my grandmother, they really really need it. Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Sorry for your loss.

I'm so sorry for everything that you are going through. Where in TN is your grandmother? Have you (or dad) spoken with the nursing home social worker? You should be able to coordinate a transport to have her moved from the TN nursing home to one closer to you. It is a shame to leave her here if there is no one here to keep an eye on her.

She is in Crossville. I think the problem is financial more than anything- the state already drained my grandpa pretty much empty when she went in there. There is also the fact that my dad is very stubborn and if he believes it can't be done he won't even look for a way (but I will continue to do so). If anyone knows more about this I'd love to hear.

Thanks everyone for all your prayers!

My thoughts and prayers are with you all. I feel so terrible for your grandmother. She will never understand that he is gone, I'm sure. If I were closer to Crossville, I'd offer to visit with her (even though she would know me from Adam, still someone to visit would do her good). I am sorry about the situation. i am sure moving her would be a lot of hassle and because of what you say, i'm doubting your dad would want to go through all that. Hugs to you. I still miss my grandfather something awful and know you will to even though he was far away. I wish you the best in this very tough situation.

I'm so sorry to read this. I just said a quick prayer for your father and his family. May they find peace and may God ease their heartache.
