First, I total my car. Then I can't move basically from all the pain. Just today I was able to get up by myself, and walk by myself, with no use of a neck brace to support my neck or a wheelchair to help me get around. Then my mom informs me my grandmother's not doing well. When we get to the hospital, she was given morphine to help her breathe easier (she told us she didnt want a machine to breathe for her). I leave after a while to get a snack, and upon my return to the room my sister's bf informs me my grandma fell asleep and died. I can't handle this. My grandmother basically raised me from when I was born. She's been there my entire life, its like I just lost my mother. I've lost many people in my life so far (8 friends died in the past 2 years) but this hits too close to home. I can't handle this. Also, if I don't go to school my freaking English teacher said she's going to fail me because of absenses. I need some help here guys.. what should I do?

I don't want to sound girlie, or like I am being sarcastic. I just take deep breathes when I start thinking about family that I am real close to that I lost. Then if you think about the good times that you had, and even the bad... People do not pyhsically last a lifetime, but the memories do.

As in the case with Jordan here on hmt. A lot of people knew him and are really sad. I for one, did not know him, but by just the people here on the forum feel as though he was a member of a family, the hmt family.

When you are at school, think about school. When you leave school, then think about the other things. It may sound kinda mean, or selfish, but you should concentrate on only school when you are there, if you start bringing the personal life into it, especially in a time like this, you will be torn in so many directions and you will take a tailspin downward.

My sympathy goes out to you though, get well soon and you will get through this loss of your gma, it may not be easy, but you will get through it.

My sympathies. Go to school. Do what you have to to get through. Not going to school will just create another problem for you. I agree about taking a deep breath and knowing that she loved you and will always be a part of you will help. You have someone else there who wants to help you too man...at least I hope she still is. You can ask Jess. She has always been there before. I'm sure she always will. Man, I gotta say, you don't need to ask for help here....you got help by your side all the time. Go to her for it. In the end it is the people who love you and truly know you who truly care and will be there for you. I can give you kind words but the help comes from those whom you really know. Please don't be foolish. I know things have gone bad in your life and it has been hard. Make a change now. Good luck man. Accept the help from her and your family. Take care. I had to post this one.

im sure what ever i say wont make your life any better but atleast i can try for the sake of knowing it might help.
Im sorry to hear that you lost someone so close to you. Im sure that its hard on you especially since its not just this thats happening to you but a whole lot more. Its gonna be hard trying to focus on school and your car well its just a car, you can always get those, however your Gma well thats a different story. Hang in there, as for your teacher she's being a a bitch! does she even know what your going through? how could she fail you if she did?
I'm all out of comforting words ( if you call any of this comforting ) but just try and get som e rest and maybe spend some time alone.

my sincerest condolences( spelling?)

---- your english teacher... i had teachers do the same thing to me when i was injured, plus you had a death in the family. Just take things one step at a time man, none of this is any fun. Im sorry to hear about your grandma... Just concentrate on getting well again and getting back to school when you can.. when youre injured and in pain, you cant learn anything and its just a big pain in the ***.
