My aunt lost her hubby some 10 days back.Since then she hasn't ate anything but for some water & forcibly 4-5 cups of fruit juice in those 10 days.Why doesn't she understand that birth & death are part of life.Even before marriage she would be knowing that evrybody in this world is going to die right? My question now is would you do the same if lose your near & dear ones?

If I lost my husband, I would be devasted, but, I would have to keep myself healthy for my kids' sake. If it were his time to go, I woudl go through a grieving process, but I think that I would be abel to pull myself together and take care of myself and my kids.

Well many times when you loose a Loved one it is hard to deal with, and you do feel at a loss. I know if something was to happen and I was to loose my husband I know I would feel devistated for sure. I am not sure what I would do, but since I am Insulin Diabetic, etc. I know I would have to make sure and take care of myself as well. But I would be concerned about your Aunt if I were you, and try to help make her see the importance to start wanting to eat before it ends up killing her as well. I would think if she is not wanting to eat you might consider getting someone in there to help her eat as well before she ends up killing herself as well.

^_^ Howdy krupesh!.... I'm sorry about your Aunt and that's really sad for her and for her family like you. You just pour all your understanding, patience and caring to your Aunt. And you must forgive your Aunt what she is doing to herself. Avoid making her all those guiltiness to herself because it will be hard for her to accept realities. Just take time for you Aunt to accept those realities. She knows all what had happened but the acceptance is hard to have it to realize for her and that's makes her a weak person. Make your Aunt be strong until the time she accept and move on for a better life. Yeah! I myself will be like your Aunt also especially when one of my family passed away. But I will always must think that I must be stay strong and always must have hope for a better life. ^_^ Thanks and Enjoy!.... myLot!....
