Have you seen Kubler-Ross' stages? I think you're in shock.
gee, every one of my relatives but my mother, 5 uncles, one aunt, 2 grandfathers and 2 grandmothers have died all since I was in the second grade (starting with one uncle, my step-fathers brother)
The ONLY one I cried when I was told was my mothers father, and the thing is my mother woke me out of a dead sleep to tell me AND I was in the 4th grade (9 years old). Am I still in shock over all of them 30 to 20 years later? or is it just denial? or do some people just view death differently than others?
I seem not to fear death the way many do, I am not sure if it is from being AS or if from all that happened as I grew up but death is not such an awful thing to me just the end of living something everyone does just like eating and breathing and drinking and every other thing we all do.
