basically, my grandmother is going to die in a few weeks (she lives with me), so my cousins and aunt and uncle (who live in another state) are coming to see her for the last time, but one of my cousins isn't coming because he has to work....i think that is incredibly shitty thing to do, i'm sure his fucking boss would understand if he told him/her his grandmother is DYING....i'm kinda numb to this right now so i'm okay but it really pisses me off that he thinks work is more important...that's reasonable, right?

He's probably not sure how to deal with it so he's going to work instead. I'm sorry about your nan :(

Everyone deals with things differently. It might not be a case of him thinking work is more important.
When my grandfather was dying I wasn't able to go a) because my work told me I'd be fired if I left on such short notice and B) my boyfriend at the time didn't want me to.
Don't judge cause you don't know the whole story.

I don't know your cousin, but there are several reasons for his response. He could really not care, and he may later come to regret that. He may be unable to take time off at his job. He may not be able to afford coming, or lose the money from not working. Who knows..

Don't be so hard on him; it's probably his job that's being the asshole.
The last job that I worked at wouldn't have let me go to visit my dying grandmother. No joke. One time this chick asked for a Saturday off so she could attend her grandma's cancer benefit and the HR manager told her absolutely not.
Oh, and another time this chick's grandpa died on Christmas Eve and they wouldn't let her leave. Fortunately, I came in to cover for her but otherwise they wouldn't have let her go...
