I think posting about this is a good way to help the grieving process along. And you don’t need to go funeral to grieve. That’s a very personal decision. Don’t feel like you’re a coward, you’re not. (((hug)))

It’s not cowardly or shameful to not go the funeral. We all grieve in our own ways. Take care of yourself. We’re always here if you need us.

Post as much as you like. You’ve just lost someone very important to you. No post can ever replace that person, so you may as well post away. And you’re not a coward and shouldn’t feel ashamed for not going. Funerals aren’t for everyone. Like disciple said, we all grieve in our own way. Some people just need to distance themselves from the scene to process what is going on. There is nothing wrong with that. There is no right or wrong way to grieve. As you said, your brother knows you loved him and that’s all that matters.

thank you everyone… @sea00115699 yes he supposedly had six months to live but once he got out of ICU he went quickly…it was kind of a blessing that he passed so quickly so he wasn’t a heavy burden for his sons to take care of him…my mom was by his side as much as she could and that brought peace to my mind because my brother didn’t like my mom before he got sick…he thought he should’ve gotten a lot of money when my step dad (my dad) died. long story. anyways…you’re right I don’t want to feel like a coward and ashamed…no harm in me not going I guess…it’s just that my whole family will be there and I only live thirty minutes away from the town where my mom lives but alas, so be it. love you guys.
