Re:

Lanetay,

The previous post stated how I felt toward God when My grandmother died suddenly. I learn to use that experience to be a stepping stone in my life. and it made me much, much stronger Try to find something positive in his living, as well as his death and dying. Think of the things that your dad would want for you. I did not die or do stupid stuff at my grandmother's death because I knew what she wanted for me. I thought of all the money she spent for my college education and my piano lessons. Here's wishing you well.

Re:

FSI,

It is good that you do not have guilt, rest easy. It is rough feeling guilt.

Re:

Kabu,

The sudden death of our loved ones is extra hard on us. It is almost instantly. It takes it toll on us. Their last second or minute before death is probably not as hard on them as it is with us. I worried about that scenario when my son was killed. The Spirit of the Lord told me that he died instantly, and he did not know that he was deceased as of yet. As for your Dad, I am sorry that you did not get to say goodbye. I did not either with my grandmother, son, or brother. As for your Mom, there were many goodbyes, it is just that she did not quite understand things so well

Guilt can weigh heavily on us. Thus far, as it relates to death, I have had yet to feel that.

I remember my parents every day. There is always something in a day to bring them back to me. Mother died of Alzheimer disease so I had lost her before she died and her death was in a way relief and she was where she should be, with Dad. It took me a couple of years before I could grieve for her. But Dad died suddenly and all I could think of was how quickly I could die to be with him.
