Bad Day

I got really bad news this week. My granddad got really sick and is going to die. I had to fly out to Florida today and don't know when I will get back. He is in the hospice wing of the hospital right now and we don't know when he is going to pass away, but it will probably be in the next few days. It is really good to see all my family, but I wish it was under better circumstances. It's really hard to be here right now.
Since I don't know when I will be able to go back to my internship, I may have to blog about some past experiences at Red Cross. Lately, I have had a few cases where a family member has died in the fire. It's really sad because a lot of times it takes a while to find the body and the family doesn't know if someone has died or not. I had a case last week where the son was missing since the fire. They later found out that he had died. It was hard enough for me to deal with the grief from those cases and I didn't even know the people, but it is infinitely harder to see a family member slowly pass away.
