Yes I felt the same way after seeing my grandmother in poor health. It's normal.

Sorry for your loss.

Stop and take a deep breath and know that you are normal.  When we hear of someone dying our own mortality comes to mind.  That is all it is - just a thought so let it in and move through the moment so that you can carry on with your normal daily routine.

Kindly,

Kitt

J.,

I am sorry to hear of your family's loss. :(

I agree with the others. Take time with the mourning process, and being a support for your husband.

For the future...we have a book in our Resources that is on the subject of health anxiety. In it is a section on the fear of death, and how to cope with this phobia. You may find this helpful.

Thoughts going out to your family.
