Fuck! *beats head against a wall*

My grandfather's dying. This is enough to get my mother to call a temporary truce.

He's not going to live out the week. We don't know how to reach my father, 'cause he didn't leave a phone number. If he doesn't call us soon, he'll miss his father's passing and his funeral, and he'll be crushed.

My mother's flipping out.

I think I'm going to be sick. She's clinging to me like a needy child right now and being as sweet and nice as she can. She even offered to make more coffee. Fuck I hate this. I want to crawl in a hole and cry until I fall asleep and never fucking wake up again.

My grandfather died last fall. I know how hard it was for me to go through that, even though he had been sick for a long time before. I can't imagine what it would have been like if my family (who are, admittedly, not really close) hadn't been able to put their problems aside and pull together at that time, or if someone hadn't been able to be reached. I had a hard enough time with *my* father being in the States and unable to get back, even though it wasn't his father dying. And at least I could reach him on the phone. Anyway, this is just my way of saying I know how much this whole thing sucks, and if you need to talk or anything, I'm here.
