“I’m sorry to have to tell you, but there’s been a death in the family”

My greatgrandma on my dads side is dying. They say it could happen tonight. I’ve never been particularly close to her, so it doesn’t hurt me directly. I feel bad for saying that, but its true. It’s effecting my grandpa worse, he’s having a hard time dealing. It is his mom after all. But I’m not entirely sure how I should be feeling. I guess I feel numb. I’ve been numb to the deaths in my family that have happened so far, but so far no one very close has died. I’ve never cried at a funeral, and I’ve been able to smile through them all, sometimes I feel bad for it, but what else am I supposed to do? How else can I move on?
