Several months ago I lost my best friend, my grandma. She was my best friend and it feels as though I lost a big piece of myself. Even though it's been months, I remember everything that happened that day. The day was rainy, and I was in art class. A student came into the class and delivered me a pass to go to the office, because I was going home. I was confused as to why I was going home, and I thought it was because I had told my mom I felt sick, so she was picking me up. I proceeded to text her and ask why I was being picked up, and I felt okay. The text I got back from her is one I will always remember. It read- "It's grandma.". Immediately my heart sank. She had been at a nursing home for months now due to her dropping condition in health. She had a tumor on her brain stem, so we all knew what was going to happen. I raced to her car and she explained how the nursing home called her saying that my grandma's condition had dropped very badly, and we needed to come because she was "actively dying" as she was going to pass very soon. AKA in a matter of days. We got to the nursing home and I used the bathroom before going to see her. When I got to her room, a nurse was walking out and shut the door behind her, when the nurse walked out I saw a glimpse in the room. It was my mom crying at her bedside. I didn't know if I should go in or not so I froze, then I nurse said I could. I saw my grandma and she looked fine. She looked like she was sleeping, due to her medical condition, she did that a lot. I looked at her and back to my mom. "She's gone". Then my world turned upside down. If anyone has any advice on how to cope with this please let me know. I am struggling really bad. I miss her. She was my best friend. Now she's gone.

I understand. I lost my grandpa about a year ago. I remember coming home from school and my mom telling me that he had passed away. It took a while to get past it, but not over it. You never really completely get over this kind of thing. My advice to you would be to feel all of your feelings. If you're feeling sad, cry it out. If you're mad and punch a pillow or something. Show all of your emotions. Ask somebody who is close to you to help you get through them. Ever since I was little my mom has told me just to get over it. But bottling up your emotions is not good for you. So let them all out. I'm sorry about your grandma. I hope my advice helps.
