A member asked:
How common is it to still grieve for my grandad, it's been over 6 months?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Grieving grandparent: It is not abnormal to have a prolonged grieving period for someone you were very close to. Most will move on in shorter time. Contact local hospitals to see if they have a prolonged grieving group. Also seek a referral to a psychlogist or social worker known for their work with grieving family members.
