My grandmother's older sister (my great-aunt) is in the hospital and it doesn't look good. She's been sick for quite a long time and she's just now going to the hospital -_- She's severely underweight (has been for as long as I can remember) and NOTHING she eats or drinks will go down. Not even liquids. She usually ends up just vomiting it back up or ends up going to the bathroom. She also feels absolutely terrible pain that makes her literally cry. She keeps suffering from nausea and dizziness spells as well. No pain medication works or kicks in fast enough.
The point of this thread is that I don't know how to feel about my great aunt and her suffering. I went to visit her with Grandma yesterday and honestly when she started crying and whimpering in pain, I wanted to cry and hold her. Anything to make her stop. But the problem is that she can be A PAIN IN THE ASS!! She talks too much about the most random and oldest shit and she definitely has a history of being.......foul-mouthed, obstinate, insensitive, and just plain crazy. She's said some of the most terrible things at the worst possible times. But she has had her moments of goodness I guess. She and her son don't get along very well but they have their moments of closeness.
Even Grandma gets sick of her bullshit sometimes. The reason she continues to be around her is because she's the only living sibling she has left. Her three brothers and older sister have passed away already from various illnesses (usually cancer). Grandma's pretty stressed out about this and if her sister ends up dying, she'll be all alone and won't have much family left. She's already lost two of her children (my mom and her oldest son). She has her middle son left now. I don't want Grandma to get even more depressed and feel even more lonely and I sure as hell do NOT want her to start her fucking mood swings again. I honestly have no idea what to do or say. It's like I'm a fucking spectator here!
