A While back? Are You kidding? Try like. 3 weeks ago. And It was a shock. It Was Cancer. If your closest person to you Dies of cancer in two weeks from now, Will you just say "Its not a shock."? I've lost 3 best family Friends to cancer, And am about to lose my Own Grandfather To Lung Cancer. Now, Read all that, And Try not to feel like an asshole. So, if you have Any Shred of Humanity in you, Take it back.
He stepped down in august. I'm sorry that your gandfather is ill, but he announced he had cancer 6 years ago then he stepped down this year, it was really no wonder why. If I get diagnosed with cancer, especially one of the bad ones like he had, I wouldn't be shocked to die in two weeks.
I'm really not the most compassionate person in the world, I know, and my "everyone dies" outlook on life doesn't help. But I don't know him personally, I don't care for his work from the last 10-odd years, so he's just not anyone important to me. Even the people I know who have died, they died, life moves on.
