Ok, here's the situation. My grandfather cut me out of his life when I just out of my teens because I asked my grandmother if I could move in to their guest house if I decided to move out there (where they live) which I wasnt even sure of. My aunt (who's vey bitter and jealous) twisted the scenario in their minds to make it seem like I ma just after their money. (my grandfather is very wealthy) Which was not the case..of course I would not be after their money. Anyhow, my grandfather called me fat, ugly and stupid and has not talked to me since. I send a letter to explain why I was so confused and tried to make up. I am their only granddaughter. I send christmas cards, etc.. for a while with no response. My grandmother passed away a few years ago. The rest of family recieves money and gifts from my grandfather and are not willing to stand up for me. Recently I learned that my grandfather was injured in an accident and is in the hospital now.
I am still hurt and upset by being cut out in such a harsh way but I think I have moved on from the feeling of losing a grandfather. If you were me, would you attempt to make up before he may die? Even though you have already tried and have come to believe that he is just a bitter hate and rage-filled old man? what would you do? and why?
serious advice appreciated. thanks.Family Relationship Question. Advice, please.?
Try to see what you can do to make up with them. I'm sorry this had to happen to you. It seems your aunt wants a larger share of the inheritance? No clue. Hopefully they will realize they are wrong.Family Relationship Question. Advice, please.?
i think you should still keep tryin and dont give up.
show him u really are there for him because he is ur grandfather.
if hes in the hospital u should pay him visits and let him know
that u are there for him... if u are religious pray to god that he
would blend his heart and hopefully he would realize what a great
grand daughter he has :) i'll keep u in my prayers
Live and learn.But yes stay in contact.In fact,if you are truly only after forgiveness and wish to mend fences,why not just go visit the ';bitter
hate-raged filled ol' man ';in person,and make amends before it's too late?
Start a rumor that you died...or do something to make them realize that they were wrong. Make them feel remorse. As much as your grandfather may be acting like he hates you, you are afterall, his only granddaughter. I'm sure he still cares
continue to send christmas and birthday cards. Dont change who u are because of what has happened. Keep trying to make the effort.
If u want to go see him in hospital then go see him.
i think you should try and make amends with your grandfather. go visit him in the hospital if you can and continue to be who you are. continue to send Christmas and birthday cards. try and talk to him. you are his only grandchild. don't give up. but even if it doesn't work out in the end, at least you know you tried your best and didn't give up. pray about it and stay away from your evil aunt and others who are just after the money.
Family is an important part of life, and life is too short to not be involved with your family, even if they do not want to be involved with you. I would go to the hospital or his house (where ever he is) and tell him in person that your intentions were not to benefit from his wealth, but needed a place to stay until you were on your feet. Tell him outright that you are his granddaughter and you want to be a part of his life, and you want him to be a part of your life! Elder people like to tell stories of when they were younger, spark a conversation that leads him into a story of his past. This will help him remember a time when he was happy, which will lead him feeling happy now. Once he feels happy around you, he will begin to realize that you are there to make him happy and that is all you two need, to feel happy towards each other!
