3 years ago my sister died, in her sleep aged 44. We grew up together and were close until our 20s, well I was in my club(British legion) when my phone rang, it was my wedding anniversary and I thought she (my eldest sis) was ringing to wish me blah blah. well for some reason as I answered I said "which one is it", and she replied are you sitting down? well who's died I said. its April she died in her sleep, I had 3 sisters until then. At the service, the crem parlour was packed, so my wife and I had to stand, then the undertakers came past us with the coffin,as soon as it passed my wife passed out, she went grey and her top lip was sweating, well to get her out we had to get a wheel chair, I pushed her out side got her some water which she sipped and was then quite sick. when she was a bit better after 10 mins or so she told me. I went to the nice place with April, she's really happy there and so was I, infact I didn't want to come back. she described it as the best feeling she's ever had "absolute bliss". she is no longer scared of dying. we are not religious so this is not a preach, a true real life and death experience.
