Death in the family and in the 2ww

Question

I am 11 dpo today and got the news that my grandfather has passed away in his sleep around 3 am. He had cancer (behind his heart) for a while and did treatments and thankfully, God heard our prayers and got rid of it. But the treatments made him very sick and weak. Just last month he was in the hospital and needed a blood transfusion and had his first seizure of his life before surgery. They also told my grandmother that he had been having mini strokes. All in all, it is a very sad day for me and my family. I'm saddened that he is gone but very thankful he went in his sleep at home and is no longer suffering. I looked up to him and he always made people smile when he walked into the room. And because he was a constant talker about everything, we never got bored listening to him.

As I've said before, I am 11 dpo... I am posting because I needed to vent and pray that this does not effect a possible child growing inside of me. I get very emotional and stress to the point of not eating so if everyone could, please pray for my family, especially my grandmother. She lost her husband of 51 years.... And for me on the side, that I make it through this without anxiety and that I'm pregnant this month.... Thank y'all so much.

I'm so sorry that you and your family have to go through this. I lost my grandma two years ago to lung cancer and it's still painful to think about. I always thought of it this way and it helped a little. When you do become pregnant and have your baby, your child will always have your grandfather watching over them. Good luck.

I am so sorry for your loss. I lost my grandmother due to a major stroke back in September and it was terrible. I was getting ready to go in for IUI in the next week and tried to stay calm and not stress but that is almost impossible. My grandfather has cancer and has given up now that his wife of 56 years and it is really hard. I did however get pregnant 1 wk later at my IUI so good luck and I am so sorry for your loss.
