Current Events > How many of your 4 grandparents are still living?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Just my paternal grandmother. She recently turned 100.

None.

-Dad's father was murdered before I was born.
-Mom's father died of an aneurysm when I was 16.
-Mom's mother died of kidney failure about 8 years ago.
-Dad's mother died of illness(unsure of what it was) on Christmas Eve about 4 years ago.

Theyre all dead. Two of them died last year

None. 2 died before I was born, 1 died when I was 7, one when I was 13 I think.

They've all been gone for years.

3.

I expect that to drop to 1 soon enough, though, if I'm being blunt.

My grandma on my dad's side is in miserable shape. She has a lot of various health issues, and her memory is totally shot, to the point where she doesn't know who half of the members of her family are. Her husband (after she remarried; my biological grandfather died when I was very young) takes care of her, but I'd be shocked if she lived for all that much longer.

On the other hand, my grandpa on my mom's side is really struggling too. He had lung cancer a few years ago, and he did beat it, but he's been having a lot of trouble since. He started falling a lot and has been very weak ever since the cancer thing, and it feels like the falling has gotten a lot worse lately. He actually took a really hard fall a few weeks ago during a late Easter celebration, and I had to call 911 for him and he ended up staying in the ER for several days. I feel like it's kind of a matter of time at this point, because he's wasting away and getting weaker and weaker.

Shit sucks, honestly. It's really depressing to watch them get older and struggle like they are.

biologically speaking, none. I was already down to two before I was even born

I still have my step grandma that was the only grandma I ever knew so she counts in my heart tbh

Grandpa on my dad's side passed away in 2019. That grandma is diabetic, early dementia, kidneys heading towards failure, and my dad passed away a few months ago - get the feeling she doesn't have much longer, though she has a good caretaker and will hopefully hold up alright to get into a new live-in facility that will specialize in memory-related care opening up down the street from us early next year.

My other grandpa has had heart bypass surgery but is doing alright considering that and being the oldest of them (soon to be 87 I think). Grandma is in pretty good health, the youngest (80) and most mindful about diet and activity.

Maternal grandmother.

She's the only one left.

None. Three died before I was born, the last died when I was 18

Maternal grandma died like 10 years ago in her late 60s, never knew my grandfather but apparently my maternal grandfather and step great grandfather were the same person so yeah, my uncle claims he died in his 80s

Paternal grandmother died before I was even born in her 50s, and Grandfather died in his 60s.

Not looking good for me wanting to make it to 90

My Grandmother has bad dementia and doesn't know anything anymore but my Grandfather just turned 93 and I was able to talk to him on his birthday.

2, luckily. Im very close with them, and it will devastate me when the time comes that thats no longer the case. Cherish your loved ones, CE.

My maternal grandmother died 6 years ago at the age of 95. Moms father died of cancer in the late 90s but they had been divorced for years.

Both re-married. Step grandfather died in 2001 of dementia. Step grandmother died a few years ago but we pretty much stopped talking to her after my grandfathers funeral. She changed his will and gave all his money to herself and her family.

Dads mom died in the late 80s. Grandfather died in 2001.

None

One died like 20 years ago, one died three or four years ago, one died two years ago, and the last one is late stage alzheimer's but still holding on apparently.

None.

Never met either one of my grandfathers--both of them died when my parents were children, but both of my grandmothers passed when I was in my 20s.

My grandparents on my mom's side are both dead. Grandfather died when my mom was 13, 15 years before I was born, grandmother died last year at the age of 92.

No idea for my grandparents on my dad's side, I never knew him or them.

None. If any were alive, they would all be in their 100s with one in their late 90s.

2, both are on the edge

one of my grandparents died before I was born

None.

Never met my paternal grandfather - he died 10 years before I was born.

Both grandmothers passed when I was 2 - I have vague memories of them at best.

Maternal grandfather died at the age of 77 back in 1994.

Just one. She's 99 though, so it ain't gonna be long.

All of mine died before I was born.

CE's mostly old these days so the results aren't surprising

All four passed away. 1990, 1998, 2012, and 2019.

Most of my grandparents passed away even before i was 18 with my last one passing away 3 years ago when i was 38. She lived to be 96.
