[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 209508, member: 1233"] I think the others have made some good points. Mostly just be THERE for your grandchild. I have a cousin who's mom died when she was a teen, but even before that her mom had lost her mind (cancerous tumors in her brain on top of a horrendously abusive and twisted childhood). I remember her mom before she got so sick, and have written a few cards to my cousin with those memories. Cousin doesn't reply, but I sent them through her dad, and know that they have meant a lot to her. She is a thankless person, my cousin, but is relieved to know her mom wasn't the awful train-wreck of a human she remembers. Because my cousin has few memories of her mom that AREN'T abusive. And that is sad. Remember the good times, show your grandson you love him and are there for him, and show him those photo albums you have! [/QUOTE]
