[quote=Anonymous]People don’t understand loss, unless it has affected them before. My partner died by suicide last year. A very good friend I’ve had for 30 years made jokes about suicide, told me she was planning to kill herself when she found out her mother had cancer. She did this in the 2-4 months after he died. I think her behavior permanently affected our relationship. I didn’t speak to her for several months. I said all that to say protect yourself, but keep in mind that people just don’t get it. I know it stings, but try to be grateful for the relationship you had with your parents. Gratitude heals a lot of comparison issues. [/quote]
