I may sound like a baby.....

But today i went to a funeral and it was for the lady across the street.
She was almost like a grandma to me.... But i tried to hold off the tears but once i saw her laying in the casket they let loose. Then it was even sadder when i hugged her husband who was like "the lord has her" "she made it to heaven"

I about balled :[

but as we sat in the room waiting for us to leave for going to the church one of her daughters started singing and i started crying again.

Then once we got to church i calmed down then when we went up to get communion the casket sepereted 2 rows and when i went by i started balling..

Omg im about to cry just typing this

Please help me :(

But yea im really going to miss her
but i feel like idk im just sad.........
and i feel like a little kid because im almost 16 and i guess you could call me a baby :[ but i just dont know.

Someone talk to me or something

really..the only thing that helped me was time. Time heals all wounds. Months and months the pain will start to ease, but it will never be forgotten.

Espically when she lived across the street =[

and used to talk to us alot.....

but i will have to be repeting this process soon because her husband is getting older and slowing down :'[

If you give a body builder a puppy, hes going to pet it and baby talk it.
If someone close to you dies, your going to cry, no matter what you will cry atleast once for the person.

Yeah well u know, its a part of life. You go through life and you go through death. Its something we all have to go through. Just think of all the good times you had with her. I know it hurts but u know, if you (i really dont know you but from the sound of you) made her feel better you know. More happy in life. Atleast you know she didnt die with sadness in her heart.

ty to both of you
Shadow for some reason i must have given you rep some other time lmao
so i owe u rep and +REP To other guy :)
Nice little saying

Yea i guess i was important to her in her life :)
and she fought off cancer for 7 years

Luckily part of her family is moving in with her husband but they brought a chiuwawa so hopefully that keeps her husband some company durning the day :)

Atleast she lived that long. My grandfather lived 5 months with Lung cancer. Just kept on getting worse. I was his favorite grandchild. And since i was about 4 we were like best friends and i felt this great strong bond between us but when i grew up as a teen, that bond slowly weakend as i didnt see him more often. I messed up. I shouldve. Now that he died my whole family hates each other because of something in the will.

Im sorry :(
I feel bad because she layed in bed for like a week and everyone went to go visit her but i was almost afriad to go vist her but i feel like i should of went and saw her before she died :( :( :(

sorry to hear that

aww i hope ur ok!!
i was like that wen my goldfish died

That's a shame really :( People who are no way in related to you, but talk to you often are alot like family that you sometimes forget their not. I don't think you're a child, it would be kinda childish holding it, doing more damage. It is mature to cry over something like this, everyone can do it.

I cried over the death of my cat which I had for most my life, I considered an old close friend or brother AND this is a cat.

She most likely left life happy, without suffering any longer, which is a good thing :) I've only been to one funeral, and I cried and it was over a similar thing. I used to help this old woman who lived in my village get to my churches coffee morning, and I grew to think of her as a second grandma. When she passed away, I was torn apart, but times passes on and, although she will be missed, she's gone and isn't suffering anymore (she broke her hip which caused big problems for her).

I still get upset over my Nanna dying about 6 years ago, death is horrible.

If anyone says you are a baby because of that they are insensitive ******** as I remember holding back the tears at my nan's funeral and then they all came floodying out, but even my dad was crying and it wasn't his mum, and I cry sometimes just thinking about my nan and grandad who both passed away.

Thats how i feel with my nanna being very ill, im actually scared to visit cause i think ill start crying.

You definately shouldn't hold it in, you should let it all out.

its good that you haven't bottled it up as others do cause this causes problems later in life. I'm sorry to hear what happeend but you will (in time) begin to feel better.

Its okaii anyone has the right to feel lost, down or emotional. Its a part of growing up. Your allowed to feel down over someone passing away. Just remember all the positive things, and let it all out. Hope it all goes well for you.

Yes it has already been said really. Its a natural thing to be upset and shocked and also I expect everybody is visiting right now so maybe just take a card or something. Visit him reguarly when everything has calmed down and all the visitors have gone that's when he will appreciate it more. You have been very brave to put this in writing and this is exactly what this forum is for IMHO. Its also great see everyone rally around other members :D
