To ask if anyone past 30 still has a full set of grandparents?

[ComposHatComesBack]

I'm mid 30s and have one grandparent left. Most people I know of a similar age are in a similar boat 0-2 grandparents still alive.

Out of curiosity really, has anyone been lucky enough to have made it past 30 with the 'full set' of two grandfathers and grandmothers?

My husband had a full set when I met him. He was 37/38?
His grandmother wasn't his grandfathers first wife though. She died of cancer young.

I am 32. I have both grandparents from my mums side plus great grandad from that side (had that great nanny until last year as well). I also have my dad's dad alive too!

I'm 23 and have only had one grandparent since I was 13. My dads parents died within days of each other just before I was born.

I lost 1 at age 5, another at age 19, the third at 28 and the last one died when I was 37. I'm 44 now. I count myself very lucky as i know lots of people my age who have lost their parents too.

I wish! I loved my Grandparents. Although I wouldn't have wished a much longer life for my maternal grandparents as they both lived into their 90's but were both ready to go in their last couple of years. It was heartbreaking to hear them saying, "I wish God would just come and get us" but I understood why they felt like that. They died within a month of each other.

I lost both my grandfathers in 3 months when I was 16, my Gran died when I was 36, and my other gran is still alive.

When dd1 was born she had all 4 great-grans alive.

My dad was the youngest in his family, so much so I have a cousin a year older than him. He and 1 or 2 other cousins still had that pair of grandparents until their early 30s, but they both died before I was 8.

My mother's father died when their oldest grandchild was 24.

My daughter is first gc in both my and Xh family. She lost paternal gf when she was in early teens, my dad when she was 26. (When she was born, she had 4gp, 6 ggp, and 1 gggp. )

I'm 31 and still have all 4 alive. I realise I am very lucky.

I'm 35 and still have all four. My last great grand, my great granny on my dad's dad's side, died when DD1 was one (she chattered and cooed through the funeral service- I was embarrassed but several relatives said Granny would have loved it, she was her only great great grandchild when she died)
My maternal grandparents are healthy and busy. My paternal nan has been chronically ill for years but has a will of iron and keps on keeping on. My paternal granddad is ex forces and still fit.
I still remember getting a pound from great granny in my Christmas cards when I was a raucous teen. I kept them for as long as I could :)

I had a full set until age 21, which is quite impressive as 3 were in their 70s and the other 65 when I was born. All died over the next 5 years.

I know someone who is 30 with all 4 grandparents alive - much easier if your parents were in their 20s when you were born.

My kids have all four grandparents alive and luckily still well enough to interact with their dgcs, so even dd age 3 will remember them.

All died before I was born. Parents also gone by my mid 30s.

I grew up without any grandparents. My maternal grandparents were dead before i was born and my paternal grandparents were useless and i had no contact with them. Only one of them is still living now.

My ds only has one set of gps that are involved. I cant wait to be a grandparent or even a great grandparent. I am young enough for that to happen.

I haven't had any GP's since I was 17 (am now v.old).

My kids have never had a full set as dh's df died before they were born. We are now NC with MIL so they only have my parents who aren't in the best of health.

30 and I have 3/4 - Paternal Grandfather died when I was 6, paternal grandmother is going strong at 78 (21 in her head, i swear!), Maternal Grandmother still ruling their roost at 81 and Maternal Grandfather going strong at 73.

My mother isn't on the scene, and my ex was orphaned at 18, so I actually have more grandparents than 10yo DD.

I only have my nan left, I'm not even 30.

My nan is not well with mixed dementia and I cherish every second I spend with her, even at times she doesn't remember me.

My maternal grandmother dies before I was born
My mum died when I was 18
My maternal grandfather died when I was 19.

My paternal grandad died when I was 26
My paternal grandmother when I was 28
My dad when I was 32.
So all grandparents gone by 28 and parents by 32

I only knew 2 grandparents, my paternal grandfather and maternal grandmother.

I had DD at 23 and she's only ever had 3 grandparents, my mum passed away the year before.

Forgot to say, I've had 1 grandparent since I was 9, (now 24) but also have a wonderful step granddad.

Turning 30 in 4 weeks and not had a grandparent since I was 21 but not had a full set since I was 4. my wee girl has no grandparents on her dad's side but has 4 on my side. my husbands father passed away 4 days before she was born last year (I am very much identifiable to anyone who knows me but Ach well I am fine with that)

Nope. My dads mum and dad died before I was born. I'm 30 now and only got my grandma

Yes all mine are alive and both great grandmothers are too. I'm 35

Forgot to add, both my parents were the eldest children in their families and I'm the eldest :)

Nope. Lost GF1 when I was 13 and Nan 4 years ago

Lost GM2 when I was 18
GF 2 not expected to be here much longer (on an end of life plan with hospice etc), he is 89.

I'm 42, parents were early 20's when they had me, thankful both parents still here.

DH has no GP's, all died when he was under 10.

Both myself and dh all have a full set each so our dc are very lucky to not only have a full set of gp but also a full set of ggp although it does get very confusing with names we have a granny farm,crazy nanny, nanny Spain and so on
