Thanks.  I've been in healthcare for over a decade and it's VERY rare for me to actually get upset like this.  Of course things are sad, but I can empathize without it actually effecting me.  
This is something that is just still an open sore for me, I guess.  

Thanks for what you do. My dad's hospice nurse made me lose it when she thanked me for letting her care for my dad in the last hours of his life. And then I laughed nervously when my dad had an after death exhale that scared me. She probably thinks I'm fucked up.... and she's right. 
I can't visit cemetaries anymore. I was in Germany with my BFF visiting her mom's grave and balling my eyes out. The weirdest shit can get you sometimes.

Military funerals kill me. The guns and Taps. I bawl every time.

Me too. Military and police funerals. Taps or bagpipes make me cry so hard.

im having problems selecting just your quote from my phone. Only you needed to see my response so I'm just deleting. Sorry to quote a pdq- derp.

I hope I didn't sound preach in any way. I know you have a lot of experience. I still think the feelings are valid and there for a reason. I hope you can work through it and not hurt so much.

No, I appreciate what you said.

Aw. That's sweet about the hospice RN. They are very special people. I'm sure she didn't think you were fucked up. Death is hard. I yelled and said horrible crap to the poor resident physician when she called me to tell me my step dad wasn't doing good and to get there ASAP on the morning of the day he died. I apparently wanted to blame someone for his compromised condition. People in medicine understand and give you a pass on these things!
