Dealing With Death

By: Katie Appleton

Losing a loved a person is 1 of the most traumatic events that a person can experience. It is inevitable, as we will all die at 1 point or one more, that you will at some time in your existence lose someone that you care about. You never know when that time will can come that will unavoidable alter your living. For me, I was 16 years old.

It was a week ahead of my junior year spring break was scheduled to start. It was late. I was at residence, asleep. I kept having dreams of bells ringing. Not like a doorbell, or a phone ring, or anything like that. It was the ringing of church bells, over and more than. Suddenly, I awoke to a light in the stairway that I could see from my bedroom door. My mom appeared in my doorway seconds later, sobbing. She was trying to talk to me, but I couldn't make out what she was saying. Maybe it was simply because I had been woken up suddenly, or for the reason that my mother's sobs wouldn't allow for the words to can come out. I was quickly wide awake, confused, heart racing, and currently hurting in advance of even knowing what was to arrive.

She couldn't say it. She couldn't tell me, or say for the first time that her son had died. My brother, my only sibling, had died. She told me that my dad was on the mobile phone and that I needed to speak to him. As I listened to my father begin, "There was an accident..." I instantly asked in a frantic, "Is he ok? Is he ok? Where is he? Is he ok?" I knew that it was negative. I knew that it was my brother, and I knew that it was bad. Then, the living altering words left my father's mouth. "Paul died."

For me, living in a world with no my older brother had been unknown for me. How would I survive with out him? What would I do not having my protector? He was my loved ones, what would I do not having my household? I was so empty and disoriented; I didn't know what to do next. I had to start to rebuild my life with out my older brother. For the longest time, my memories belonged in one particular of two categories: just before he died, and right after. Folks always say that time heals all wounds. It doesn't. You understand to live with the loss, and eventually you become good at it. As days pass, and the rebuilding begins, living will get easier.
