Illness and dying is something that nobody really wants to go through, but is something everyone goes through. Illness my not be part of life, but dying is. I have been in many situations where I have experienced illness, but not yet experienced my own death. Family losses are part of life, even if that person isn't close to you, there is an obvious fact that you have lost someone.
My parents try to comfort me as much as possible, well at least my mom does. My dad really doesn't care if I experience someone dying, my mom would rather "baby" me, and try to explain that it's just part of life. Like I don't know that already. Between them both giving me different types of feedback on how to approach this concept, I was able to develope my own approach to to this concept: Death is part of life, and so is illness. It happens to everyone at some point of their lives. Wheather it is at a young, mid, or old age.
I know that my life is going to end at some point. I know that I will be ill at some point in my life; maybe more than once. That is what I am sure of. The only thing that I am unsure of, and that makes me nervous, is when. I don't know when this is going to happen. It sometimes freaks me out, because I don't know when my last day is going to be. If I did, I would be able to attempt whatever I wasn't able to fufill in life yet. It makes me wonder. What have I not yet completed in life? What have I completed in life? When will I die? What happens to you when you die? Where do you go when you die? Too many questions, and too many answeres.
