Unhappy Angry and Sad

My grandpa passed away Nov. 6, 2001 and this year I am graduating from high school. Right now I do not want to graduate. The most important person in my life can not be there to watch me graduate on May 27, 2005. My grandpa support me so much and he loved me unconditional unlikie my parents he was there for me when my parents weren't he always said go for your dreams and goals I am but he can't be here to see what I have done. I am angry because God took him away from me and that he got to see my brother graduate but he wont see me graduate. I am so sad on the inside and I depressed. I am just trying to get by. My heart is in so much pain.I hope I can be hsappy when I graduate but right now I do not want to graduate because I want to be able to hug my grandpa and to hear from him that he is proud of me I know it will not happen but that is what is in my heart.
Love,
Shana

Shana, your Grandpa will be there hugging you, just close your eyes and you will feel it. The best thing you can do to celebrate his life if to be happy and go forward. He will be so proud of you.

Love, Marilyn
