Poor guy. That is going to take the shine off his day. He'll be glad he spent the time going to see her.

Just saw it on the web. Feel very sorry for the guy, he must be feeling the whole host of emotions right now.

Aye, I might not like hes policies etc, but losing a Grandmother is something that everyone can empathise with.

Judging by the opinion polls it`s an awful pity she didn`t live for another week. She`d die a happy woman then.

Gosh, that's terrible. I thought she might hang on until after the election. It must be very hard on the family at the moment. Very rough altogether. Ar dheis dé go raibh a hanam.

Be on your guard, then, because you do not know the day or the hour.
