I have been thinking about it more lately with my brother being ill. He is only 50 and is SO needed here and I don't want him to die anytime soon. However, it's something I have to try and come to terms with as it is a possibility it could be sooner rather than later. I DO NOT want to accept it.
A lady I work with just lost her 18 year old son a month or so ago in a motorcycle accident. He was screwing around and hit an SUV. She came back to work last week and we happened to be leaving at the same time a few days and I have never seen such pain in someone's face before. She just looked broken. Just looking at her made me hurt so bad for her. I wanted to reach out and hug her and take that pain away even though I know that there is nothing that ever will. Of course we just walked out and said have a good night but it made me think about what I would do if I lost one of my kids. I don't think I would ever recover.
As for being afraid of dying myself? I am not afraid to die. I am not ready to though. But when it's my time, it's my time.
