What is the worst thing that has happened to you with regards to losing someone you loved? Was it a parent, a child, a sibling, what was it? My step-father died, but my mothers parents are still alive. We do not know my father's parents.

That is an extremely sad thing that happened. I give you my sympathies, and big hugs regarding that. I understand why you don't want your father near the children. Do you talk about your mother to your kids?

Was it a sudden thing, or was it expected? Does it make it easier?

I have been lucky in that respect, as I have not lost close family & friends. Hubby has lost all his grandparents, but no other relatives or friends.

Interesting question. I have recently lost a few family members in England, latest being my aunt a couple of weeks ago, but it for some reason I haven't felt the loss, i think its because of the distance i havent registered that they have gone, like i feel like my grandad is still with us. Sorry babbling a bit here, did i make sense?
