my grandmother is dying. i don’t feel sad about it or anything. should i? we were never very close, even though she and her husband (who died in 2001) are/were my closest relations with regards to geography.
i don’t know. my dad seems pretty sad but he doesn’t express these things very well.
i should feel something, shouldn’t i?
