Hi Snugs. I lost both of my parents and am single. I do have a large family so I am only alone when I want to be.

Do you fear death either your own or a close friend or family member?

I fear for my family, and I guess I fear being the last to go. The pain I went through with my mom was horrible. We took her to the hospital for a medical test that was out patient. She never came home, spending 3 months in ICU before dying.

Does death impact how you lead your life ?

Live every day like it was your last, one day you will be right.

What are your thoughts about an after life?

My priest told me his idea of Heaven was to be fishing and catching a 400 pound Marlin. It would take him a year to reel him in. Once he had, he would pat it on the head and say, "Let's do this again in a year."

Sorry to hear of the terrible experience you had with your mother.
