Long Few Days

Tonight was my grandfather's visitation. The family is taking his death well. We all knew it was coming and are relieved his suffering is done. My grandmother hasn't broken down, but she admits "there are good times and bad times." After the service tomorrow she'll wonder what to do. She was my grandfather's caregiver. She definitely isn't alone. She's living in the area she grew up in, and her sister who also just lost her husband is there by her side. Heck, there's even little old me.
