Today, after months of taking care of my grandma after a surgery, the doctors gave her a clean bill of health and I finally got to sleep in my own bed. She passed away while I was at home. FML

How ungrateful of her

Today, after moving hundreds of miles to take care of my beloved grandmother and working like mad for a week to make the house cozy and accessible for her, it was finally time to bring her home. Or it would have been, if she hadn’t died in her sleep last night. FML

Today, I went to see my ill granddad in hospital. I saw lots of doctors around his bed, and they pronounced him dead, so I ran out crying. A little later, I found out that my granddad had been moved, and it was a different man in his bed. FML

Today, my grandma, who was placed in a hospice a few months ago, started to decline in health and passed away, The day before she died I thought my girlfriend was so sweet because she took a leading role in her care, just to find out she didn’t care about her at all. It was just an act to steal her pain medication. FML

Today, I bitched out my grandmother, who lives with my family, for being lazy and laying in bed until 6-7pm for the past month. When I was done, she told me she had been diagnosed with cancer and was depressed because of it. Nobody had bothered to tell me. FML

Today, I found out my grandmother passed away. When I told my boyfriend I began to cry. Instead of caring, he said "you're getting my bed wet," rolled over, and fell asleep. FML

Today, I watched my grandmother's funeral on a webcam. She died at 95 because the overwhelmed hospital kept putting back her pacemaker operation. I hadn't seen her in two years. Fuck Covid. FML

Today, I'm taking care of my bedridden, 94-year-old grandma. She woke me up at 6 a.m. only to tell me her UTI is still there. Later, she made me interrupt my 15-minute-dinner a total of 4 times because she wanted things like "more lotion in her buttcrack." FML

Today, my grandpa died. I called my grandma to make sure she was going to be fine. After talking over the phone for 30 minutes or so, I told her goodbye and said, out of habit, "Say hi to grandpa for me". FML

Don't blame yourself, you were there for her when she needed someone and she passed away knowing she was loved and cared for.

People can't always predict what will happen. Sometimes there's just no knowing.

Because doctors have crystal balls and everything that goes wrong is their fault. You sound like the kind of person who goes to court because of a stolen pencil.

They didn't lie to OP. I knew a man who was fine and happy one day and died later that exact day due to a heart attack. He had no post medical problems and was about 50. Life is short and unpredictable.

Um... yes, he would. Re-read/watch it. Naomi Misora ring a bell? L? How about him actually considering killing his sister? Leading his father to his death?

I am so sorry for your loss, OP. But you couldn't have known that was going to happen if the doctors had given her a clean bill of health. There wasn't nothing you could've done, except love her and care for her while she was still here.

That sucks, OP. Is it possible that the "clean bill of health" referred to the major issue, and a smaller but still deadly problem went unnoticed in the meantime?
