Losing your loved ones...

Recommended Posts

As of now, I have lost two of my aunts. One from Type 2 Diabetes, JUST because she ate a doughnut(The simplest things can kill you in an instant, if need be), and the other from a certain disease I don't even know. She died in her sleep, and my uncle was devastated. Anyone else I might've never known was my great-grandmother, who died of old age, but it was natural.

Discuss deaths of family members or great friends.

I've lost one of the best friends I'll ever have.

But she's forever living on in my memory, and over time, I've been able to recover from the loss.

And I'm very, very grateful to say that my family live long lives. We have 90+ aunts still living a healthy lifestyle. So when they pass away, there's a feeling of loss, but also a feeling of knowing that they lived great lives.

I've only lost a grandmother, on my mother's side, but because I was fairly young when it happened, I'm not as affected as I think most others think I should be.

I almost lost my dad's brother once, when one of his neighbors cut down a branch without thinking about the consequences, where it landed on my uncle's head and caused a subarachnoid hemorrhage on the brain. He somehow survived, but to this day it reminds me of how fast and frail a human life can be.

I never met either of my grandfathers, and both my grandmothers have passed since my birth. My extended family are far away, so I have no one but my immediate family and an uncle that I see regularly. Thus, most of you are more fortunate than me.

My Grandad on my dad's side died before I was born and my great grandma a few years ago. On my mum's side, my grandma died when I was 10 (I still have the last item she brought me, it was the last time we went out together and she really went out), my grandad when I was about 12/13 and my great auntie a few years back.

My mum think my grandma's death has played a part in how I feel now.
