Recovering mentally from my grandma's passing.

Posted by gothicseawitch - September 11th, 2022


I haven't been on newgrounds for awhile now. Been grieving my grandma's passing and took a break mentally. I feel a little bit better from taking a break and I will move on with my life. I can't stay sad forever and I have always things to do.

My grandma was buried in El Salvador. I don't know which part though. I will ask my mom though. She always said she wanted to be buried in the capital with her mom but unfortunately due to both timing, logistically and most importantly financial reasons. It couldn't have been met. That's what I know as far as I've been told.


Nobody's except my mom was able to go sadly. She was the only one able to go and comfort my grandpa there.

Neither did I, my little brother and sister had passports to go. It's complicated and that's basically another story.

I'm going to keep this brief as I can and not get to much off track.


My mother did send me pictures of her casket and she told me she Livestreamed it on Facebook live. Unfortunately I didn't know she was doing that. She never sent the link to me personally. I found that out because my sister told me after it was finished. Understandable I was mad. But she did at the very least did me send me a photo of her casket. But then again. She did say in El Salvador wifi connection is horrible there. So I will let that slide.

I wasn't able to go there. But. I'm going to say this. This will be the final time I bring this up and I I'm going to say this now! Rest in peace grandma! You were a very kind soul. You took care of me and fed me every time I visited your house. I will forever miss you!

I will get my passport one day and save the money and I will go to El Salvador at least once in one life.

With all that being said. I will never bring this up ever again. I just wanted to bring this up for my closer and vent a little bit.

Here's a fun fact. I may not be able to ever bring this up ever if I don't say it now. Just 3 days after my grandma died. I also found out that the queen of England died recently to! I was shocked. My life got more interesting after the next one. All in my bedroom and crappy phone data with no internet in one day!

This also fun fact happened in one day to around her death.

I don't got anything else to say. I just feel good coming back from being away from here for awhile now. It's great being back!

I just wanted to update my newgrounds page and update everyone since not everyone follows me on Twitter or devinart and me not having any other platforms being on than here.

If you had read all the way to the very bottom. God bless you for taking the time and I hope you have a wonderful day! Just please send me words of comfort!

Also I forgot to mention. My mom's back as of the making of this post. But she's a changed woman now and a shell of her former self now. Thought I mentioned that to. But I'm sure time will heal wounds to. As it did mine.

Once again thank you! It's good to be back!

Also the I'm finished moving all the stuff and moved to.

Ok ... Goodbye for now and until next newgrounds post then....

When it rains, it pours, I’m afraid. I’m sorry all this happened to you, and while I personally make it a point not to be affected by the deaths of most celebrities (to save myself the energy to deal with the deaths of people I actually know and love personally), I can understand being extra-sensitive to bad news in general during your time of grief.

That person that responded with the death of a popular cat, though, clearly doesn’t know how to read the room and you should block them for their insensitive response. It certainly validates my own personal decision to delete my Twitter account before I got too big on that site (although I understand the decision may not be as simple for people who actually rely on Twitter for paid commissions and stuff), and it sounds like you may want to take a longer break from that particular social media site if you’re going to get idiotic doom-and-gloom responses like that. Personally I would prefer to return to Newgrounds here in times like this, although I would avoid commenting and giving reviews until I’m in a better headspace so that I don’t bring strangers down. Looking at all these creative art pieces and animations that consistently bring larger Hollywood productions down a peg or two is inspiring to me.

I hope things improve for you, and until then do things that make you happy, even just temporarily.

Don't worry to much. I'm in peace now with myself. The queens death wasn't really anything significant to me very much. Although it's still sad. Even though I'm not British at all. But I was still very respectful about her death. Although most of Twitter didn't and basically clowned on her which was just sad. Beyond that I do plan on staying here on newgrounds more but since I don't have internet and just my phone right now. My web experience is very limited. Heck little to no games work on mobile. So it can get boring. But it's not a huge loss I still got games installed on my PC.

@gothicseawitch Sounds like your limited Internet is a bit of a blessing in disguise—even the best sites can have trolls actively ruin your day when you’re just trying to look at fun art, so you don’t have to use Newgrounds unless it makes you happy on any given day. Still, it’s annoying that our so-called “portable” phones become useless if we can’t get Internet. Glad you have some good games that can be played offline on your PC, at least.

Your right. Maybe not having so much internet is probably a good thing. I'm kinda glad I did download a few games before it got cut off.
