Sadly, life goes on. Don't feel bad about yourself for continuing to go about daily business, even to have some fun. I don't know your Grandpa, but I'm sure that he doesn't want you to put life on hold and hide away in a dark place. That's not to say you shouldn't be upset, but its ok to do other things and carry on as well. I hope I'm not coming across as insensitive, because that's the last thing I intend, but don't beat yourself up. At this moment in time the thing you, your mom and Lee (your brother? I don't know) need is to do things together, sometimes forgetting, just for a little while is good for you.
Also, I didn't want to say this on the houserabbits com because I'm very aware these days of "animal lovers" attacking me because I don't do things their way, but Ghost had a couple of phantom pregnacies at the same age as Phoenix is. She got over them. Neither of the girls are spayed yet, and though I understand it needs doing for all the reasons listed in the com, and I will get it done, I can't afford it at the moment. And I'm not going to let no person on the other side of the planet call me a bad pet owner and get under my skin again, for one thing that I'm putting on hold when I know I give my animals a better life than many out there.
My personal opinion is don't feel pressured into doing it, unless Phoenix's behaviour is really worrying you.
Incidently, I'm pretty sure Ghost is the Alpha of the pair, is Phoenix?
