I had posted a comment after I saw your comment here - I was so sure I posted a comment in your site - I don't see it in your blog post - I just checked to see if you had responded...<br />Anyway - I don't know how you dealt with such a difficult loss as such a young age. I know what choice do we have - death just happens - but still it is so hard. But it is nice that you have retained your sense of humor through it all. <br /><br />CA - Yes...as parents grow older it is so hard to avoid that thought...noonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03844071708334559013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548905.post-54275497818716734352011-02-16T14:59:54.378-08:002011-02-16T14:59:54.378-08:00I think about it every day Noonie ... every single...I think about it every day Noonie ... every single day.

All of us think about it.. some days more than the rest! But like they say it is inevitable.. why worry.. life does go on even after death.. When my mom died years ago I couldnt accept it.. there are days even now after 7 years that I still cant comprehend or accept it.. but life has gone on, for all of us.. even my dad!!

When your mom and dad were together, you could also be their child and know they would take care of you. Now it is totally the other way around. All of a sudden you had to step up to a big responsibility. And with very young kids to take care it is very hard sometimes to find the mental space to deal with any other emotional issues. Sometimes I just want to sit blank in front of the TV and I don't even really watch it. Just feel like tuning out all thoughts...noonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03844071708334559013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548905.post-87124924918570206662011-02-10T08:43:26.539-08:002011-02-10T08:43:26.539-08:00Bits - nice one.

I think watching one's parents age is the most difficult thing one witnesses. The people who were once all-powerful and almost heroic in stature seem so frail and helpless as they age. And watching them cope with losing their life partner is the toughest thing one has to go through. Different people do it in different ways. Sometimes, I become very distant and curt with my mother because I cant see her pain and I feel I cant deal with it even for one minute longer. And then I feel incredibly guilty about it. I think most of the time, its only the women who are sensitive to such things. Even with N's parents, I am the one who notices the little things and agonises over them. He is a lot more matter of fact about it. :)BangaloreMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13563621780931589842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548905.post-11901829659899642232011-02-09T07:22:16.903-08:002011-02-09T07:22:16.903-08:00All the time, Noon.

My grand father died when I was in 7th grade. Some of my friends had not known death in the family even after they finished high school. So I guess it depends on your experiences.noonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05148779993978057896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13548905.post-48982577273127562942011-02-09T02:10:36.317-08:002011-02-09T02:10:36.317-08:00Inevitable thoughts when our parents start aging.....Inevitable thoughts when our parents start aging... *hugs*Rohinihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11234347487003665907noreply@blogger.com
