I'm not prepared for my parents' passing

I thank God that I have siblings. I’ve been completely out from under my parents since 2016. I lived in a place my Dad owned from 2011 till 2016 so wasn’t fully out. Now I’m on Hud and get child benefits from social security. When my dad passes my check is suppose to increase. I’m hoping they got another 15 years and 20 would be great. Thankfully, I have siblings that I’m close to and day treatment during the day for extra support. Idk how I’d handle their deaths.

I think it about it often too if my parents go before me where will I live I currently have been living with my mom and dad and pets my brother said once he would take me in but no I think I will pass on that he is married with a daughter and I would feel like I was intruding plus I cant stand my sister in law and I am pretty sure she doesnt like me either because of comments she made about me I know shed be mean to me or completely ignore me if I did move in with them not a chance in hell I would rather get a apartment and try to live on my own my best anyhow. And no group home for me either I think there would be too many rules there and I don’t like most people so that’s no option either for me anyway.

I do think this quite often, but I would say , to self, live in the moment. Think of it, when time comes, we may pass on before them and they will feel even bad than we do.

Only thing is right her right now, who do you spend your time, which is more valuable than any amount that’s present here on this earth. when time come we need to go. Until then do something that helps the other soul.

My mom’s like my best friend. When she passes I’ll probably cry from time to time. I lived alone for a long time. I know the mind adapts to situations. I also know some people they can take years to get through the grieving process. Denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. I accept how life is, but I don’t agree with it. I just go day by day trying to find some happiness from time to time.

I think about what my Dad would have wanted and what my Mum would want for me, they would not want me to be crippled and unable to cope, they’d want me to live my life best i can and get over the grief as soon as possible.

I also fear this

My father died when I was about 3 years old and was too young to notice the loss

But with my mother and step father I will greatly mourn their passing

No one else on this planet stuck with me through the bad times as they did

Nobody even comes close

I went to one of my psychologists and family friends funeral of his father. His father was 105 years old and his children where still fainting and passing out and devastated. Death used to be simple when I was young my loved ones go to heaven and oversee me and meet god and all that stuff. But since I lost my Dog I am seeing death in a more of a total loss to me here on earth. I have faith and still don’t appreciate death that much. My parents will be with my faith when they die. My faith is still mysterious but also beautiful and fascinating. I hate to see my parents suffer. If they go quick it will be a shock still. But please no long enduring suffering.
