Hello @lilgrizz I am sorry to hear of your health issues. While I am no medical professional, I agree it does seem that mental illnesses and physical illnesses sometimes go hand in hand. Then again I also know several folks who battle only one or the other.

Physical and mental illnesses can also lead to, or exacerbate isolation and feelings of isolation. In the case of my wife many people evidently just had no idea how to interact with her as her medical condition changed. So they simply ghosted on us.

All I can say about your fear is that none of us know when we will breathe our last. All we can do is keep on living as best we can and not dwell on when or where we might die.

Strength, courage, and peace!

@IndianaScott so sorry it took me so long to reply. I appreciate your message and also hurt for the pain you must feel with your wife's sickness. Your response to not dwell on when and where hit me hard like I needed. Thank you. Self pity can be so ugly sometimes.
