It still amazes me that ...Thank you for your words. It still amazes me that people don't see the need to talk about these things ahead of time. It's not that they don't want to as much as they don't think they have to. And so many died young and unexpectedly. I sorry to hear about your husband. Being a young widow or widower shatters so much in our lives. I'm glad that you are helping to educate people and further the conversations.Mark Liebenowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03096346779312780404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2284130410123072156.post-38281476185465870272015-02-05T18:13:16.527-06:002015-02-05T18:13:16.527-06:00I experienced the same thing when my young husband...I experienced the same thing when my young husband died. I never had to make the agonizing decision, like you about taking him off of life support as he died instantly. But I knew about how he felt about organ donation and felt that was a precious gift to give. I loved your statement about how you live between the two worlds - the world of the grieving and the one that ignores death at all cost - VERY TRUE!! I know of that world myself and now feel called to open the eyes of those around me through blogging (GreetGrief.com) and my FB page Greet Grief. Even if it is uncomfortable, people need to hear about reality through those who have lived it!! Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
