[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1558904, member: 18945"] A loss that is sudden, unexpected..without 'warning' is so much harder to accept and deal with emotionally than one that comes after a prolonged illness. It hits hard and is really difficult to come back from. I guess it is a little different for me as I dealt with a lot of death when I was a young man, and as my siblings and parents grew older, I knew the losses were coming, and I've always just done everything pretty much alone anyway.. When my father passed away in '07 I just poured myself into work here with the cows and everything else. Not exactly the same tho, when my twin brother passed away in late 2017, even tho it was after a long struggle with cancer. It really knocked me back. I questioned everything after he was gone and I was no longer whole. But, I promised him that I would try to live enough for both of us going forward, and it's how I get by. [/QUOTE]
