I did not attend several family funerals. My aunt passed away a month ago and it would have been hard to go. Besides, we have not talked in decades. Her passing and she herself of course meant something to me and what happened shook me up and I did feel she was going to die just hours before when there was no sign of that happening for the weeks preceding it but sorry I do not believe in funerals. I go because I sometimes have to. I prefer not to attend. There are traditions. Sure. Many different kinds. Everyone does them different.
I have my own way to grieve. I guess I am not a conventional person and I grieve deeply, alone, in my own way. I am against celebration, cannot really grieve by going there and crying my eyes out and grief can be very silent. In my opinion those that feel it the deepest often go through it deep down in themselves.
I hate death, I am really scared of it. I hate the idea of those I love dying. I have a terrible time with losses. I simply have a traumatic hard time or find it impossible to let go. To lose someone´s SO I simply cannot comprehend the magnitude of how it feels. I think I would like to go with. Just like many animals that choose to die after their companion dies. No cremation for me either. Well, this much I am traditional. Getting buried together would be nice but not dying ever would be best. I do believe our souls go on until our next lives but I cannot imagine death and stopping thinking, being me, what happens to that after.
Kenny, I have not seen an update since your SO needing a transplant and getting dialysis. This thread shocked me. What is going on? The treatments are not working? Does he have a chance? I would like to think that we can all send healing dust as I simply do not want to give up on him if there is a chance.
