I honestly do not know what I would do at this point. It's been 20 years thankfully.

It's not to say that I have not had members of my high school graduating class, or others I have know die (friends of friends, acquaintances, etc.). Some of my friend's parents are starting to get to that age, and they are getting their first taste of death/loss.

They will ask me how I dealt with it, and I can honestly say no clue. It's been almost 30 years with my parents, and 20 for grandparents. None of which honestly could be applicable to someone who had gotten to enjoy the company, guidance, and security of having their parents around half their lives. Simply no comparison.

For the most part I am awkward in those situations, if not emotionally dead.
