Well i think i took my uncle's and aunt's death ok, she was sort of expected cause she had cancer, and the treatments weren't working anymore. My uncle however was a bit strange cause he was fine one minute and dead the next. I had my own strange way of dealing with their death, since i had to support both my mom and my father, as well as my cousins, i didn't really have time to stop and think about how i was feeling, i just put my pain aside and tried to helped them. Maybe it wasn't the best way to deal with it, but that's what happened.

My grand-father's death however, was very painful, not only for the death itself, i couldn't go to the funeral because of a lot of reasons i'll keep for myself, but it also brought a lot of other issues to my life, that i wasn't ready to deal with. I haven't till today been able to cry, and i don't think i will ever. And it wasn't expected either, my mom had just been with him 2 days before and despite having a cold, he was ok.

And i'm sorry for your loss Mourdor...it isn't easy. But keep your head up, it eventually stops hurting.
