HW#17

I have dealt with illness and death in my family. One is my grandmother she is really ill she is really old and suffers from dementia and she also has insane panic attacks my grandmother has about 8 children including my mother and they all suffer a lot taking turns taking care of her and also taking turns staying over at her house. I've seen every single one of my aunts and uncles cry and they deal with the whole situation in different ways and this is why I find this unit to be really interesting and I have a feeling Andy will talk about how different people have different ways with dealing with death and illness. I haven't really been taught how to see illness and dying when i was really young my parents never really taught me how to see illness or dying I just knew what it was and how to deal with it. I saw a book about death and how to properly teach your kids about the death process and some of the experiences kids have with death and what they think about where the person or the animal goes after it dies and it just really interesting to see the thoughts other people have about the situation.

I guess you can that people dying in my culture is a big thing but i am only talking about the people i know and the people my family I really speak for every body in my culture. When my grandfather died in Puerto Rico everyone came every single person he knew or met once it didn't matter people respect the dead. Even when your sick any body who knows you would come visit. My family thinks of death as letting go they never really hold it in or take it really hard because they know its life and every one dies. The feel i really hard the day or and the funeral but they try not to keep it in for a long time. 

I would really like to know how other people think about death and illness and how other cultures think about it and I would want to know what they would do when a family member dies or they become seriously ill. I have a feeling this unit is going to be a good unit because I'm really interested about dying and interested in how people changed because of the death or a leader or president of a country and how their whole entire government and or country changed.
