Struggling with my Grandmas death

Yes, very normal. It is very hard to see someone die like that, I was with my sister and experienced exactly what you are talking about.
My other sister is a RN and told me it is the way the body shuts down, and if you watch shows where people were in a accident and almost died, they don't remember. Sota like a shield God puts around the person mind, not to feel the sting of death. So what I feel is the body is going but God is right there with the persons spirit.
When my sister died I felt Christ and my sister walk right through me, I know she and your Grandma are with Him right now.
Just because we are Christians doesn't mean we don't have grief either. You need to go through the process, because you love her.
Do all you need to go through the process, and Hospice has free counseling I think in your area.
I am glad your Grandma is no longer stuck in bed, I bet she is running and laughing in a beautiful place. Big hug to you sister!

That was a tough thing to experience, but I am sure your grandma appreciated you being there.
Grieving is ok, sweetie, it really is. We all do it in different ways, and that's ok too. Let yourself feel, give yourself permission to grieve in the way that feels right for you. Jesus wept for the death of His friend. Your grandma is happy now, you don't need to feel bad for her, but it is horrible when someone you love isn't there any more.
It won't ever go away completely, because you loved your grandma, and you'll always miss her. But it will get easier, and you'll start to remember all the good times which have been blotted out at the moment.
Hang in there, sweetie
Praying for you.

I'm sorry, sweetie... that must be hard to deal with especially when you are grieving.
Just remember, it can't make any difference to your grandma now
Praying for you and your family.

Death can bring out te worst in some families. You must treasure your memories of your grandma. They are yours to value. Your aunt can't take them from you. And, she has passed through the curtain from this world, but she has not 'vanished'. You will see her again. That always is some comfort, but nevertheless grief at the death of a loved one is very real and very painful, but perfectly OK.
