What age were you when you first became aware of death?
143757
I learned when I was 3.  I lost my father to a drunk driving accident, he was the drunk driver.  It was something that I really never recovered from, my mother did the best she could to raise me and my sister, but I still never had a father figure.  It has also made it difficult on me now as a father myself.

Many times.When my first boyfriend and I broke up. When my husband cheated on me. When my sister died at 46. When my brother died at 36. When my mother died. Two weeks ago when my son-in-law was diagnosed with cancer at 28. One night when I was having chest pains and didn't think I would live to see the next day. Many other times too. through out my life. I just say to my self. This to shall pass. I wish I knew more about whats going on with you. So maybe I could help. Some of the questions people ask are to vague. We need more details. Sorry life is hard for you.Right now.

Hey girlfriend I'm 44 and I'm in the prime of my life and I feel young and I been told I look young for my age. We are still young. 40 is just the beginning. Don't think so much about death Just be happy and live everyday to the fullest. I sometimes get scared too but all I can do is pray and ask god to at least let me live as long as my father did and he was only 67. Now you tell me that is young Huh? So see we are still young. Actually younger guys ask me out. The older we get the better we look and feel!

In 04.\nFour members of my family died within months of each other and I got stuck in an abusive relationship that ended horribly. I felt so lost. I skipped most of my junior year of high school because I didn't want to be around other people and I was angry at everyone.\nI found myself again towards the end of my senior year. I found my grandmother's cross in my bedroom and never looked back.

Not just one year but childhood up to the age of 12.  Lived in a small Buckinghamshire village in the 1950's.  Didn't realise it then but we were cocooned in an idyllic carefree environment where we could roam freely with no worries and find out about life naturally.  We had rafts on the brook, learnt to swim in the pond, built trolleys from wood and old pram wheels, built tree houses.  We rode on farm tractors and trailers, made catapults, bows and arrows, pea shooters out of cow parsley.  Found out about relationships life and sex without magazines and Video's.  I was so lucky, it was another world but one I will never forget.

When one dies , he/she will have no feeling. I remember one evening when I was watching television. I found that the sound from the TV became weaker and weaker.The room became quieter and quieter. Even if someone dropped a needle I could hear it clearly.Just  then I told my mom that I heard nothing. Then I fainted and when I woke up I couldn't move. It seemed  as if I were  a dead person. I couldn't get up or raise up my hand  because it was as heavy as hundred kg.  That accident let me experience the moment of death. It was not terrible at all. It was quite smooth as the whole world became so quiet ...quiet until I  heard nothing. No feeling at tall . So death is not terrible nor painful. After I fainted I had no feeling at all.Therefore I think people will not have feeling after they died.

Laying in the crib with my twin sister.  I was probably 2 years old but limited or no vocabulary.  I remember waking up - I may have had a nightmare - seeing her laying there next to me and having a great sense of contentedness.\n\nAlso when I was two, I remember getting stung by a bee and having my mom care for me.  She placed me in front of the television to watch Jetsons and waited on me with some tasty snacks.  I remember liking having her baby me.

My life changed when I lost my son.  I delievered him stillborn(meaning death at birth)he was 5months along.  My husband at the time wasnt there for me, when this all occured.  So I changed my life completly.  I am now divorced, and closer to GOD, then I have ever been.

Yes I have, Once when I was about 14 I was watching my little sister while my mom went shopping.  She found 2 dimes in the living room and tried to swallow them I tried putting my finger in her mouth to get them out which was like THE WORST THING TO DO. Luckily while I was calling 911 my mom came in, turned up on her stomach and punded her back (all the time I was crying and screaming to the 911 operator to hurry up becasue she kept asking me so many questions).  Thats why I believe that EVERY person nomatter what age should get a CPR training from the red cross.
