Example text
Nina I remember the last time we were together, we fought over the TV and I called her a bitch. I regret that to this day. Kelvin I remember she went to the hospital. I couldn't go. I didn't want to see her in pain. I felt it was a good choice not to go. Matthew The reactions to the death of a loved one can vary. Some teenagers may feel that they are prepared to deal with the worst. They believe that they have had time to adjust to the loss of someone with a long-term illness, such as a parent dying of cancer.
He looked like he was sleeping. I felt that the situation was unreal. I could not believe it. Alex I felt I never really looked at her. I almost did not recognize her. Matthew I went up to the casket and started to feel delirious. Mike I knew it was the last time I would see her. Meghan It was not her when I kissed her. Karla If I hadn't seen my brother, I thought I always might want to. I think I wanted to put some closure to it. Nina Page 19 Not all bodies are buried.

As complex as your life has been, with the death of a loved one it now becomes more complex. As a teenager you may have not thought too much about death or tried to avoid thinking about it. This naivete may leave you feeling more vulnerable when a death actually occurs. You may feel overburdened and overwhelmed.
