She wrote:

"On Wednesday, it will be a year since my grandpa passed on. And I still have not dealt with the passing. I’ve just ignored it because it makes no sense to me still. I have little to no emotion towards it because it’s not yet a part of my reality. Weird.

"My grandpa’s passing was my first “first hand” experience of passing at home… as in seeing a casket in a home I grew up in. The first funeral ko ntlung. Dunno if it makes sense. So yeah, just a strange disconnection that I can’t come to terms with as yet."
