Title is pretty self explanatory, in my life most of my family passed when I was young, father when I was 2, grandparents/aunts uncles when I was in my young teens. Now as an adult I am faced with the possibility of losing my mother, yes she is fully vaxxed (not looking for ridicule, I know the dangers and was not able to keep her from the poison), just looking for you know, advice on how to mentally deal with losing someone close without losing oneself.

It's nature for offspring to bury parents.

One way, is to deal with the inevitable by planning for it.

  • From bed to grave

so to speak.

Who will you invite?

Where? How? Who?

Will you be one others can lean on?

Or will you be one who needs leaning?

Regardless of emotional "sway", a loss is a loss.

Some can stay pretty strong. Others have a harder time.

Just being prepared, I think, can help a lot when the day comes.
