My DH died 12 years ago, before our only daughter had met her future husband or had children. I have not been in another relationship since, haven't met anyone who interested me, and am now used to being on my own.
I now have two adorable grandchildren, a girl of 3 and a boy of one, and I live within walking distance. They have two grandparents on their father's side who live a couple of hours drive away. I have a few pictures of my DH around, and my DGD has asked who he is.
I have said "Grandad X" and that was enough but recently she asked where he was and if she could see him. It is hard to explain death to a three year old without upsetting her or getting upset myself.
Had anyone found a good way to cope with this one ? I realise it must be so much worse for a child if a grandparent they have known and loved dies when they are very young,
Do GN explain reasons for thread deletions?
