Rock n' Roll Doggie
Really.
OK, I'm (confession) over 40, and I have yet to attend anything other than a memorial service for anyone who has passed away (and have only been to 2 of those). I've never seen anyone in a casket, buried, etc.
I know this isn't typical in life and I'm a little weirded out over it. On one hand, it's good: longevity runs in my family (my grandma just turned 100!), and my friends and family all have pretty good health.
On the flip side, I know nothing about how to deal with death or great loss. I don't know how to empathize easily with those who have experienced it. I'm scared of that, because depression runs in my family, and I've had it. I worry about how I/we will deal (or not deal) with it. I also have an odd feeling that *when* it does happen, it won't just be one person, but 2, 3 or more in a short time.
Is there truly any way to prepare?? (questions sound so strange around this topic) Or am I just being weird?
