WTF?
It was a nightmare. He is gone. A few days ago my Neighbor's son passed. I did what I could to explain what was happening as he was ventilated and presumably suffering from this Covid. My neighbor really appreciated what I taught him about. Before the end they were in their home discussing Ph Levels and much more.
Still, over my life, I have experienced much death, and it seems that the closer the deceased was or were to us, the more we did what we could to laugh. I asked my Sister In Law about this strange habit, 30 years ago. She said that it was not uncommon, and that we do it because it helps make the pain go away.
Perhaps you have never learned that lesson yourself. Frankly, I do not care after your reaction, but I will attempt to contend with your ‘WTF?’
I almost lost my son not once but twice while he was in Iraq. I was an absolute wreck over that stuff. I changed my entire life because of it. I almost know what it is like to experience the loss of a son, and, old habits die hard.
He is OK, but I was crazy for months.
I got better after he returned, both times.
I do not care to go on in this fashion, but I find your obvious indignation at my attempt to be offering a break in the incessant somber posts out here on this issue to actually be the more insensitive.
