[quote=Anonymous]Yes, OP. Same. Last month two of my friends lost their moms the same week. Both moms died of cancer, though one tested positive for Covid the day she died. (She was already in hospice and expected to die in hours or days.) Many other friends have lost parents over the past two years too. Covid is definitely behind some of these deaths, but it's also the fact that this is just the time of life when these deaths tend to come. Like OP, my parents died very young so I was a couple of decades ahead of everyone else. I find that for the first time in my life I can have conversations with friends about our lost parents and feel truly understood. OTOH, the other depressing part of this stage of life is when you start to see the names of people you knew in high school showing up in the obituary section. [/quote]
