2 days ago my grandfather passed away. Everyone is still mourning for him. I just remembered that today is my birthday.
Guess this year will be the same as the last few years - no party.
Rest in Peace granpa.

And thanks everyone for your condolences, I and my family really do appreciate it.

edit: btw, can a mod change my birthday to Nov 7th?, I must be rushing to make this account when I chose my birthday.

oh god that sucks.

I remember losing my granpa 3 years ago, worst 2 months of my life. All the best to you and your family.
On a purely personal note, I'd like to show Yellow the beauty of infinitely repeating Starcraft 2 bunkers. -Boxer

Condolences.

My grandfather died about a year ago. When I remember him I think about good things I can do that would make him proud, and that makes me feel ok about it. I hope your mom/dad is doing alright, since losing a parent is really hard.

My condolences. My grandfather passed away very recently as well. Although we were not very close (since he lived in another country entirely), I still understand how you must feel.

I personally do not celebrate birthdays (to me, they are just another day of the year), but it is a shame your own birthday was affected by such a tragic event. Still, I congratulate you on your day of birth and I hope you and your family will be well.

I'm sorry. Good luck with mourning your grandfather. I won't lie and say I understand because I don't. But I hope you can at least make the best of things, party or no party.

Well, I think it might not have been the best time to bring it up, especially as OP said he'd even forgot it was his birthday? Anyway, I think this isn't the right place so I'll leave it at that.

R.I.P, it's never fun to lose a family member

I hope things look up for you this year and happy birthday. I've lost both of my grandfathers but I probably wasn't as close to them as you were to yours.

Best of luck for the future.

Oh man, were you so occupied with your grandfather's death that you forgot your own birthday? Well, congrats on a new year!

My deepest condolences on your loss. And I think heyoka's right, in a few weeks, have a party, celebrate your birth and the life of your grandfather, and all the experiences you had with him. I think that's just as important as mourning this loss.

Best of luck to you this year.
