Personal Narrative: My Grandpa's Death

104 Words1 Page

During the fall in eighth grade, my Grandpa died. If I could speak to anyone dead I would choose him. It has been about two years now since he died and I would ask him what it is like. He suffered from Parkinson’s Disease and I would ask him how his fight to survive was and why he ended his fight. He had Parkinson's for about 6 years, and it started to get worse as he aged. If I got to talk to him again, I would also ask him if he really missed his family and if he watches over us a lot.

    Hello Professor Clement after reading over the scenario again I feel that his death could have been caused by an accident because he could have been with some friends who were trespassing on the property and drinking. Therefore, given his age he could have been drunk and fell which may have caused him to hit his head. There is also the fact that he could have had a medical condition which no one knew about which could have caused him to have a sudden heart attack because a heart attack has no age of person. Furthermore, if the victim was not murdered and there was others with him but they were trespassing they would not want to get in trouble for being on someone else’s property without permission plus they could have been drinking and had

I had never really thought about the horror of watching someone you love wither away into a shadow of their former self; that was something that happened in books and movies, not in real life and definitely not to me. I was only 15 when my grandmother finally decided that it was time to take my mom up on her offer and come live with us. Her motivation? She knew she didn’t have much time left and wanted to spend her final moments at our house with her family.
