Losing a friend ♥.

Such an emotional time.It's a friend's funeral tomorrow.She wasn't just a friend but also a co worker,a fellow nurse who I worked with for so many years.Rest in peace....Events like this triggered a lot of memories.Although I've been a nurse for many years,death and dying is still a difficult issue for me to talk about especially when it involves family member,or friend or patients either from illness,natural causes and tragic events.I would think as a nurse,I should have been more prepared to deal with issues like this on a professional level and have a much better understanding of death as a part of the circle of life.On a personal level,I might haven't fully recovered and come to terms over the loss of some family members,friends and some patients close to me over an 8 yr.period.I haven't had the chance to completely mourn each one of them.

Furthermore,I asked some professional help which is difficult for me to do but I did it anyway and finding ways to educate myself.I know,I'm not alone.Thanks for taking the time to read.Have a blessed Sunday..
