      From: DayLikeToday@comcast.net              I am looking for help on a project I am working on.              I am looking for people who have had someone close to you pass away and are       willing to share       some information with me.              Specifically, I would like to know everything they did on the day they died,       or, if they died first thing       in the morning, everything they did the day before.              I am looking for everything they did, especially and including the mundane       details. Something like;       "On the day my mother died, she woke up before everyone else and made       pancakes for breakfast.       After we finished eating, she sat at the table and read the morning paper.       My father went out to mow the lawn and mom went out with him to work in the       garden. She came in around noon because she wanted to go to the mall to pick       up a new outfit for a party her and my father were going to the following       evening..."              I would think this would apply more to people who die suddenly and       unexpectedly. Someone who is ill and in the hospital for some time, then       passes away, obviously wouldn't be doing everyday things on that final day.       However, if you'd like to share your story, but talk about what that person       did on their last "normal" day, that would probably work.              If you would like to also include your own story of what *you* did on that       final day, I may be able to use that in my project as well.              You can submit your story or stories to the email address below. To help       avoid spam, please make       the title of the message "My Story" (without the quotes).              If you have questions about what my project is, send them to the same email       address with the title       "Project Question"              If you know anyone else who might be interested in sharing their story,       please feel free to share this       information with them.              DayLikeToday@comcast.net              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
