Unfortunately, when your job requires to you write e-mails to Government Ministers and representatives from Foreign Governments, you have to be somewhat adapt at this kind of e-mail. :P

I get those headaches, as well, but mine are due to being overworked. Anyone who says that Civil Servants do not work long enough hours has never been in a Civil Servant's home on a weekend. I was even working on both Christmas day and New Years day. -_-

Each player must accept the cards life deals him or her: but once they are in hand, he or she alone must decide how to play the cards in order to win the game.

I can't blame him. Grandma was a bitch.

animex75 · #**1299** 01-19-2015

four? my great grandmother only had one (maybe two? i dunno what killed her, i always assumed age since she was damn-near 90)

Ave · #**1300** 01-19-2015

My great grandpa is still alive at 95 and he's actually healthy enough to do yardwork and drive around.

TheOcean · #**1301** 01-19-2015

She wasn't what i'd call lucid by the end. After the fourth she had a series of ministrokes and a month later finally died of the fifth major one. My family doesn't die easily. Grandpa on the same side took hours for his body to shut down after a major car wreck. Doctors were amazed they said he shouldn't have been able to breathe at all with the sheer amount of head trauma. His lungs wouldn't give up though. This was the man who couldn't have his carotid arteries cleaned out because the tiny amount of blood getting through the cholestrol on his arteries was just enough to let him function normally but if you stopped half that blood flow by clamping the artery in order to do the surgery it would result in brain death. He was also the only person i've ever met that was on both blood thinners and blood thickeners at the same time-which was the only reason at 70 he stoped drinking after being an alcoholic his entire life. Stopped cold turkey.....jesus I just rambled

My Grandma is 87 and is in better shape than most of her children. Too bad her mind is gone, because I'm pretty sure she will outlive a few of my uncles.

MrsSallyBakura · #**1303** 01-19-2015

My husband's grandma is 92 and still very much alive. She doesn't walk as well and she needs a back brace but no major illnesses or anything...

My grandmother died at 65 due to Cancer. I was told yesterday my other grandmother now has cancer, as well. I should feel sad, but to be honest, I only met her twice, so I am not sure how I feel. My family is strangely disconnected.

MrsSallyBakura · #**1306** 01-19-2015

^If you only met her twice then there shouldn't be any obligation to feel sad.

Hmmm, perhaps, perhaps not, an obligation to feel sad would be a tragic thing, indeed, but I do feel there should be some sorrow for her family (technically, my family, too), but I have only seen my father twice in the past three years, so it feels almost hollow of me to have any feelings beyond the kind of 'I am sorry for 'your' loss' feelings most have.

Heck, even feeling sorrowful at such a disconnection from where I have come seems not to exist.

[ Meh, emotions never were my strong suit. :P ]

Hope you're planning to get regular check-ups, given that kind of family history.

Do you still have the remains of old cthulu? You should give him a proper viking funeral. Small floating raft, out to sea, followed by a shotgun blast at the high explosives you packed in the case, all caught on camera...

I hated using the phone before I ever used emails. It's rare I have a phone conversation that lasts more than 60 seconds.

My Great Grandmother was well into her 90's and still happily socialising and living her life by herself right up until her eyesight failed rapidly. Once she lost her independence, she just stopped caring and died a few months later. Truly mind over matter.

Cancer can go suck a dick. My aunt died from breast cancer a few years back after a long chemo and drug battle, and a few months ago my mum was diagnosed with breast cancer too. Thankfully hers is far more treatable than my aunts was, and in a few months it'll hopefully be gone for good.

This. I never understood why people almost demanded you have emotions for someone you never knew.

Thanks. -_-

To be honest, I am planning to go out Code Geass style... Make the world hate me so that my oh so not symbolic death can bring about world peace. :P

Thus, all things going to plan, I will be dead beyond the cancer can finish me.

Dammit I still need to finish Code Geass.

But I bought the DVDs off Amazon and I need to show the series to Bananaman, so I'm gonna start from the beginning again. Thing is, I don't know when we'll start watching.

Hetalia is... okay. It's entertaining, but in my opinion there isn't really enough there to make you go "Woah, I'm glad I watched that."

That was the impression that I got of it after I watched the first episode.

Well, that and, "I have no idea what just happened."
