I remember when my older Brother died of a heart attack at age 60. When we told Mother she just collapsed and kept saying over and over “I can’t take this”.
We had to take her to the hospital and her blood pressure was off the charts. They finally were able to sedate her. Mother finally got over it to some extent but I recall thinking that she would never have made it if she had lost one of us at a young age.
hope all is well now ><>
