For the next few days, the school was a mess kid, teachers, and another staff was crying, this is the type of kid he was he made everyone a better person.

    Personal Narrative: The Four Year Span

    Losing someone you watched suffer in their last days on earth doesn’t feel anything like losing a friend that was your age who had their whole life ahead of them, and losing both in less than a 2 month span doesn’t help either. The year of 2013 wasn’t the best year for me nor any of my classmates. For me it actually started when I was in the seventh grade, my mom received the rights to take care of my ill grandfather (her father). Turns out he was suffering from early age dementia; caused from drinking at an early age which happened to be 12.…

    Personal Grief Narrative

    I love these personal grief narratives because it's comforting to read people's stories. Everyone in one way or the other can connect with experiences of grief. I read the narrative Pet Death, Coping With the Loss of a Beloved Pet. In this narrative a woman is discussing the loss of her dog Charlie. This story is very touching because throughout the narrative I could feel the pain and devastation she was feeling.…

    Narrative Essay On Grief

    Grief has been both my downfall and my saving grace. No one knows how to grieve properly or correctly, but the one thing I learned from grieving at a very young age, is that grief is love; specifically, unconditional love. This unconditional love towards someone (or in my case, many people) pours out as a sign of loneliness and yearning just to hold them and hug them one final time. I understand that losing people is a part of life and can’t be avoided, but growing up, I thought my world had turned upside down when I lost the two most important people to me. Three weeks prior to my tenth birthday, my Nana passed away from Alzheimer’s Disease.…

    Narrative Essay About Losing A Friend

    My whole outlook on life was shifted. It made me question many things, one of them being God. I questioned why He would do this; why He would take away someone who I know would have done so much good to this world. As life went on and I got older, it became easier to deal with this loss of a friend. It became easier to cope and be able to accept that he was gone.…
