I can't. 


What the fuck am I supposed to do?


My parents, aunt, and uncle decided not to tell my grandma about her brain cancer because they didn't want her to completely shut herself off from everyone. 


which is understandable


but she's stronger than that. 


When she had breast cancer, I didn't see her smile falter once


I didn't see her expression drop once


I didn't see her mood waver once


she took it like a champ


and I tried to explain that she should know what's going on with her 


that it feels off to not tell her that and hide it from her


when she has the right to know what's going on


if she didn't want to know, that would be a different story


but she's been asking


and every single time


my dad says that it's "just a cold" or "virus that'll go away in a few weeks"


sure, it'll go away


but my grandma will go away too


so y'know how she had like 2 months to live?


yea, well yesterday everyone was in a good mood


I got to spend a lot of time with my grandma 


watched a couple of movies


got a bunch of work done


had ice cream and an awesome dinner


but when we came back from the restaurant


my grandma was shaking


and she was drifting in and out of consciousness.


of course, this was like 10 minutes after we came back


so I was in the middle of talking to her when it happened


and it went downhill from there
