Bad angsty things.
Did your mother hang herself? :'( Please tell me no.
Reminds me of when my parents got officially divorced a week ago. Just the pain going through it and all.
More depressing angsty things.
i had to watch my old man go down hill for a lot longer, really heart breaking to see and i know where your coming from.
for him it was over alarmingly quickly, i never even got chance to say goodbye, but it was a god send for him because the scenario for his condition was really unpleasant
if you have any unfinished business get it sorted out m8, i didn't and it still gets to me 10 years on :(
I've always found it equally admirable when you see people fighting against the odds or when you see people finding the courage to accept the inevitable.
Maybe you should realise that what you are experiencing here is the loss of someone to admire, even though in my eyes they're still admirable. But that, in all accounts, it is your loss you are mourning, not theirs.
That doesn't make it any less painfull, though but realising that grief and mourning are ego based emotions may make it easier to deal with the pain and loss.
Strength to you all the same, though.
