Last weekend a close family friend died. It is a sad time as he was slightly younger than my father, this I believe has played on his mind.
It really seems to have affected my parents badly. Does this mean that feel that they are at the age when people start to pass away? I hope not.
Death is probably the hardest thing I have ever had to deal with. One very sad day I remember was when my mother gave me a gift she never wanted to give me, a funeral tie. She said to me 'Sadly you will get a lot of use out of this'. Poor Mum.
How should we cope with death? It there a right way? Why does it always seem so wrong? I never know what to say. Does anyone?
On the 28th of this month it will be the 18th anniversary of my Grandad's death (mum's dad). Still 18 years on I get upset and miss him dearly, should I be over this by now? Maybe time is not really a healer but just a long term plaster?
