So I have a fear of loved one dying. I remember whenever my dad came home late from work I would imagine it was because he had died in a car crash or something. I would stress myself over this thought, and maybe even cry. In fact, I remember one time my dad came home safe and I cried when he walked in the door because I thought he had died. And I was like 12, 13 y/o!
I have a half sister who has always lived at the coast w her dad, and we would occasionally visit or call them. One day, their phone number didn't work. We weren't in contact for about 5 years. Then she found our #. We have been talking on the phone for a year now, but I fear she will die. I am starting to have the same fear as I did w my dad. Does anyone else have this?

I don't know if I actively fear that my daughter will die but I tend to be hyper vigilant about her safety to the point I have a tracking app on her phone that tells me down to the street address where she is. I'm not trying to control her...just trying to keep her safe. Best wishes.

My adopted mother died of cancer when i was 4.

My father died about 6 years ago from a massive stroke on his birthday.

Yes, I worry about loved ones dying.

My parents died a few years ago. They both had terminal cancer. It was inevitable.

I worry about my husband and daughter dying, though.
