Whoever decided to call it "passing away" was an idiot. "Passing away" sounds so peaceful. But dieing is anything but peaceful in my mind. I have had to fight to live for the past 3 years, I don't want to die. I don't want my parents to die. What is peaceful about someone who appears to have no health problems just dieing one night? Especially when they are all alone and their spouse they saw yesterday had no idea anything was wrong? What is peaceful about that? It makes no sense.
My best friends dad died 2 days ago. He was in Mexico for a week and then he flew to Las Vegas for a business meeting and his wife flew back to Washington D.C. His wife is a nurse.... she would have known if anything was going wrong with him...
He never showed up for the business meeting so they sent someone to look for him. They found him in his hotel room.... dead. My friend.... my poor friend.... What do I say to her? How can I comfort her when I haven't lost a father? I have lost my soul, I have lost my baby, I have lost friends, but never a father. I lost my neice, but she wasn't my father.
This man, he was younger than my dad is. How do I know my dad will not just keel over dead someday? It's just wrong.....
