Livs,

I guess I should thank you for saying what you did. It confirms something I have been thinking.

I don't want to be "left alone" during my grieving process


I did this 3 different times in the last 2 years. Her grandmother (very close to her), her Aunt, and finally her mother.

We don't know. So it appears that we dont care. Our view is distorted. We don't instinctively know what you need. If we knew, we wouldn't do what we do. We assume you would need what we do, so we give that to you. That is what your DBF did, thats what I did.

Apparently with the exact same results.

Its not an excuse for him, but it is an answer to your questions.
