I'm still processing the grief. Lost my grandfather (or the closest thing to a grandfather I had, her husband, who I'd known since birth) just a few weeks ago and my grandmother died last night.

I had the incredible experience of growing up with great-grandmothers and grandmothers on both my maternal and paternal sides, and I had them for nearly all of my childhood.

It's hard to quantify the loss. I was just learning more about her as an adult, since she was down in Alabama I only got to see her once a year or so. She faced the absolute brutality of the apartheid South her entire life, and particularly as a young mother. The last time I saw her was at my law school graduation, spent some days and got to talk to her more than I'd ever gotten to before.

This shyt is tough.

My advice is to take ZMA and you will see them in your dreams. Every death that was close to me came to me in my dreams. I dream of the dead often. ZMA helps give you vivid dreams too so when they come back to you and you on ZMA, you will really feel like they are here with you.

Stsy strong. Shed them tears. Take time to heal.

My condolences. May she rest in peace.

I've only met my Grandmothers, both Grandfathers passed while I was very young. So only one Grandparent left and she's also ill so not long.
