'My grandad wants me to play cruel prank after his funeral - but I think it's too far'

It's never easy to deal with the death of a loved one, even when you have time to prepare for that happening. In some ways, it can be even harder to have practical conversations, including funeral arrangements.

One grandchild was left incredibly conflicted after being told by his grandfather that he didn't have long left, and asked him to make a promise. The grandfather, who always had a funny sense of humour, wanted to make one last joke before he died.

Taking to Reddit's TrueOffMyChest forum, the unnamed user explained: "He said he’ll give me his phone and after he dies, he wants me to use it and text everyone to thank them for coming to his funeral. Just to freak them out. It would be his last joke."
