Final Week

Death is such a hard thing to deal and talk about.it is so difficult to lose a loved one. After reading the chapter tonight I learned about different things a person has to go through in order to deal with death. I supposed i always assumed that death is usually sudden and very unexpected. I can only imagine how hard it is knowing that a loved one is soon going to pass away. I know people say that you have time to say good bye but it like a ticking bomb. It will never be enough time to lose a loved one. I think its equally harder if you know a loved one is dying or an unexpected death.

 I am lucky enough to say that I can only imagine how it feels to lose a very dear or loved one rather than having been through it. I lost my grandma three years ago. She had a stroke when i was young and since then she tried her best to recover, but was unable to. She suffered through the aftermath of stroke for almost ten years and due to that i was not so close to her. Her sickness came in the way of us having a good bond. I really felt for my mom's loss and i tried to put myself in her shoes to really know how she must have felt at my grandma's funeral. I was very upset and sad at losing my grandmother and miss her dearly.

There is no right or wrong way to cope with death. Like mentioned in the text book everyone has their own way of dealing with their loss and grief. For some it takes years and some never recover from their loss. A lot of factors play a role in how someone's death can leave an impact. How they died? At what age? Could their have been something done to prevent? Death will always be unfair and no one knows why it happens.
