My fiance's grandmother is mere hours from passing away. They have prolonged her life just until all of her daughters can get there. It sucks, but I never really dealt with death so much. All of my family who died, did so when I was too young to understand it. Not that it is hard on me, but it is challanging to be strong, positive, and put on a brave face for the rest of the family. I guess it's about time to make the 6 hour trip to Chicago..
Deaths is a mear fact of life, if people could just cope w/ that and not get so personally attached, then we;d all have a better time w. it, Im prepared for death, Death only hurts people whom they have left, Morning is is purley personal. Your not feeling bad for the person who is dead, your feeling bad because the person left you...
If we didn't get personally attached to anyone, the world would be a shitty place to live in. It would be like the movie "Equilibrium" (which wasn't very good by the way). Sorry to hear about it khwiii, hope everything goes as good as possible for everyone.
