It’s been five years now, and it’s not until now that it hit me that my grandpa is gone. I remember when we used to stay at the hospital for the holidays. It’s not until now that I miss him and that I can fully understand what a big role he played in my life. If this is how I feel, I can’t imagine how much my parents went and are going through. They were his parents after all. If I miss them, I can only imagine how much they miss them. I hate that they both had to leave close to the holidays. It just makes them that much sadder.
