Death Is Unexpected

Death is unexpected. Although I knew my aunt Gail would not live for long, her death still seemed to shock me. In my mind, the day she passed away was unexpected, and strange. To me, it feels as though your brain is pushing back the knowledge that someone you know, may pass away soon. In order for you to concentrate on just spending time with them without feeling as though it has to be done in a certain amount of time; your brain protects you.

For individuals suffering through a death, they need to start picking up the pieces of heartbreak, and denial in order to move forward in their lives. Individuals may not want to forget about their lost loved ones, yet they would like to move on with their lives, and attempt to live normally. With living normally again, individuals do not need to completely block out the ones who are no longer with them. People need to simply keep hold of the memories they believe are the most valuable to their life and take them into their new
