Hey, Karate,,,I Totally Feel & Relate with You - The night My Grandad died in Hospital in July, I was too Drunk to go see him that Night. No words to describe how I feel about that. Really Good to hear You're not willing to drink over it, though...

Sorry for your loss. My Nan died when I was living far away and I hadn't seen her for a while. But I'm sure she knew she was in my thoughts. XXXX

hang in there dont regret not calling there is nothing you can do about that. its nto worth beating yourself up over something like that.My grand father passed and I hadnt seen him in 4 years next ya know he passes on. I regreted and kicked myself over that for years. ya know what? it wasnt worth it I was just better moving forward with being sure to spend as much time as i could with other relatives some i did better with others I did not it is what it is but no sense in kicking yourself over it.

Kudos for staying sober tho. Death scares me its one of those things where i promptly go get hammered to cope. I have not had to deal with the death of a close loved one csince i sobered up I hope I'll be able to remain sober too when the time comes.
