It makes me scared and depressed. Anything can happen. Life is precious, and getting older is depressing too. Lots of my contemporaries are dying in their 60's, though my Dad lived until 95, my Mom didn't. I'm afraid.....

Lest people wonder, I'm not in the hospital with them now. Maybe later. It's an all day thing. I love my grandson and he's more important than my T to me!!!!
"I hate not knowing", you write. So, you want to know the date and time of death? That would make you feel better?

The truth is is that for peace of mind, we MUST find some way to accept that we're not for this world forever. Different people find different ways to learn to live with this fact. Without a kind of acceptance, life could be one of constant dread - like what you feel now.

Maybe if you look for your own personal understanding of the life/death issue, you may resolve the painful issues with your T.
Thanks for this!
