Question by Q?: pretty grim question but would like to know what the general concensus is?
My parents lost their daughter an i lost my sister just over a year ago. i can understand that it is hard on them but it seems they cant see the positive in anything still. they live in the past and it seems that ive lost them too. i came to the realisation that i need to make peace with it in order for me to cope with the first and now the “loss” of how things were. i wondered … if they were given the option to die today… if they will choose living or death to gey peace again? I know its an akward Q but what would you think or maybe someone out there who have gone through the same experience can shed some light? I know it isnt easy but it seems to me that they really dont want to be here anymore. its very sad and im not sure if i can do anything to let them see that theres still life out there.
Id just like to add it is distressing to me to be around them. i am not taking any of this well but i have a 2 year old who needs me … i need to continue and be positive for her sake. i am finding it very hard to be around them. my eldest sister is fighting with them saying they must remember that they have other kids too… i think shes selfish! But at the same time id rather step away from it all… it is heart breaking seeing people you love rather wanting to be dead than alive.
