I have become, over the years, sort of detached from the idea of death. Partly or mostly I think because as a medical professional I have seen it so many times and it looked so easy. My relatives were all wigged out when my parents died and I'm sure they viewed me as uncaring because I was not... Yes, I hurt when my Dad passed but viewed it as part of the process having seen animals pass so many times...My Mom basically committed suicide after my Dad passed...just starved herself. Her choice and not mine to talk her out of...she was sick and in misery too. I don't fear it but I don't want it anytime soon either...
