as I get older, I can't imagine living far away from my parents. I don't understand why some children want to move away as far as possible even when they have solid relationships w/their parents. I think about what Kathy said often - once they are both gone, I'll never be able to speak to them again. That scares me.
Tears, there are lots of tears here!! Aw, that's okay, Kathy, you've given me so many laughs, a few tears isn't a big price to pay.
At least one of the good things about this show is that they have lots of footage of him to watch and smile at. I know I love seeing old home movies of my late grandfathers and hearing their voices.
@princesseshan I think those feeling might change when you lose someone as close as a parent or a child. I haven't lost either of my parents or my kids though so I don't know.
@thefrozencharles Yes :-( Kathy said so in People Magazine: “It was a really tough decision, because I think of the ‘D-List’ as pretty much my baby for the last six seasons, and I also think it was really time to stop doing it,” Griffin tells People. “Reality is great, but I really didn’t set out to be a reality star. So now it’s time to spread my wings and show that I’m a little different than Kate Gosselin. I'm not saying better, but maybe separate myself from the pack a little bit."
This made me cry because I've been going through some tough times with my 90 year old grandfather, but my father was never really around so he practically raised me. He has been in and out of the hospital and he has a really weird resemblance to Kathy's dad.
omg i know wat its like it hurts but u recover my g ma just passed away in her sleep and i really dont want to cry while im doin this but i already started it sux that someone u love just.....goes....u think they"ll live 4ever but they never will
gosh...i never think about my parents just...going...i mean i know it happens and i think ill be ok if it ever happend..but this just shows you you have to make every day count..cuz you never know what is gonna happen
Sent shivers down my spine. My parents are 59 and 61. A couple days ago my Dad made this really weird loud cough that I've never heard him make before. I think it;s the first time I've realized that I've only got 20-30 years left with them. Rest well, John Griffin.
Shit I'm crying so bad, what a sweetheart, that whole story about him asking the doctor to take out the tube is just.. heartbreaking. I love that Kathy isn't afraid to cry on TV. That's why I love this diva.
This episode is very significant to me because My Grandpa passed away the same exact day as her dad. She is extremely amazing!!!! I love Kathy Griffin and her whole family. (:
She did what her father would've wanted her to do... follow through. I feel so sad that he won't be around... I cannot imagine what she is going through. I am happy though that he was on the show. The relationship between her parents was inspirational because it was so funny and so loving.
It's so good to see that Kathy has a real personality and feelings despites others opinion she's so real even in term with her divorce, her image and her family truly emotional. I will always love you Kathy.
I don't understand why any of them left the hospital. It was so obvious he was passing quickly. Maybe they just couldn't believe it was finally happening. I love Kathy and her mom, I wish the best for them.
Would you feel the same way if she or some one was giving birth to a child?...It's still private...illnesses and death is part of life.... the parents have been part of the show...I don't really see anything wrong with it i feel like it just shows the true nature of Kathy and this show...!!
kathy i feel ur pain my grandma is dieing and me and her r very close my mom is taking it hard we have 2 options let her go in peace or to put the tube in her we really need help picking which one to do please i need to know what u think its not a joke shes in her 70s and so many problems with her funtions in her body
OMG thank you @dinh for knowing the song! ive been dieing for this for a year. so peaceful and nice. cant find it on youtube but i found it on google! thanks again so sooooo much seriously!!
I just started watching this show.. and in the last two days ..Ive watched up till season 3.... I could not stop crying for her Dad.. what amazing parents... Kathy... I'm so sorry for your loss...
This makes me cry a bit because Kathy's dad reminds me of my own dad and we're very close. I'm totally like Kathy, it's something you try to prep for but it's just so hard to imagine living with his death.
it is depressing to hear her say she's been trying to prepare for this moment her whole life, and yet the news of her fathers death still hit her like a baseball bat. i have the same delusion but i know she's right. when the day comes my world will never be the same. the death of a parent isn't something you can prepare for.
So sad. Once they put that breathing tube in, your chance of coming off of it is small in most cases - especially at that age or in that stage of illness. John and Maggie were so sweet and it's great that they got that much time together.
Obviously you havent listened very well to what she is saying throughout this episode. Her father...and watch the past shows...would never want her to leave a job. He didnt like self pity. As soon as she received the news she left. How one deals with a loss is how one deals with it. You may not agree...but until you are in their shoes...SUCK IT!
obviously Rosie was more important than her being there. Thats just not right. We are not robots, no matter how many people we employ, we are human, not robots. Working, while a loved one dies, is not "strong', it is total & absolute disrepect.
she didn't know if he was dieing for sure, he had been in and out of hospital over the last 6 months....plus, she knew he would not want her to cancel her work commitments
and that aside, we don't know if working was a coping mechanism for her....people cope in different ways, its really easy to judge when you don't know people's inner motives
the most immportant thing that kathy got a chance to say that she loved him most people dont even get that chance to say goodbye or to say anything to them at all my heart goes to kathy and maggie R.I.P john griffin
it brought me to tears when the moment that Kathy's dad John passed, it reminded me so much of how my great grandmother passed the summer of 2008, getting that phone call in the morning.
All i have to say is
RIP John Griffin
and also my great grandparents
RIP Pedro & Andrea 4vr in my heart
Kathy, you and your family are forever in my heart, your a furious exterior with a soft loving person in the inside
this really shows that Kathy isnt just a cold, tough comic that doesnt take things seriously, and it shows shes a real person like everyone else, its heartbreaking and you could tell its real.
Very heartbreaking.... The pain in Kathy's eyes are haunting. It must be the hardest thing to lose a parent you once loved and adored.. RIP JOHN GRIFFIN.
Having lost my father as well, I know exactly what she is going through. You learn to move on, and go on with your life, but you never, ever get over it. never.
This episode is to me a confirmation that Bravo did a fantastic job giving Kathy a reality show. Now we know Kathy a lot better than ever before, she got famous and the most important part - we know her family as well. That's why I cried when I was watching this part 'cause I actually knew her father a bit more from this reality show. And to us watching the show, he wasn't an anonymous person.
I really love that clip of her Dad..."Kathy, don't take any crap from those people...I don't care if you never work again!" What a great guy and clearly an inspiration to Kathy...
I have so much sympathy for her dad... I lost my mom and dad within a year and a half... i'm still sorry for her... i'm still depressed about that last few month.... its been a year and i still see him layin on the stretcher... but i'm still soo sorry for her
I was so sad during this episode because despite her fierce exterior Kathy is a very nice person and she treats her family and friends very well. It's hard to see this happen to someone so nice.
Oh Maggie, God bless her !
