How did you deal with a loss or tragedy?

The loss of a family member like death from an illness or an accident changes everything drastically- the whole dynamic of the family and our way of living. We know that at any given time, something awful and terrible can happen. We usually do not think about it until it happens. My mother died last year after a week stay in the hospital because of complications from colon cancer. She was the moving spirit of the family . Her death was a great loss to everyone especially my father whom I think feels so alone without my mother. I believe he has come to terms with he being alone now. Life has to move on.
