In reply to the discussion: Well... my youngest cousin just died from the cursed virus... [View all]Aussie105
(6,276 posts)25. After the Spanish flu subsided
most of the survivors knew someone who had perished. Be it father, mother, son, daughter, cousin, neighbor . . .
Is this the new reality the world will face in the future?
To those who have experienced it, the personal pain of suddenly losing someone you knew brings the reality home. The feelings cannot be described to someone who has not gone through the same.
Thanks for sharing Layzeebeaver. May this be the only loss you suffer in these trying times.
Be careful, be safe out there, all of you.
