It’s impossible to predict how long it will take to get over a loved one’s death. Attendees at a Death Over Dinner event talk about what it was like to be present during someone’s death, and how they felt in the immediate aftermath.
When we imagine what happens after death, we’re not conjuring our ideas out of nowhere. The group members discuss whether they think there’s an afterlife and what it might look like, and then ask themselves where they think those visions come from.
Watching a loved one die is more than emotional: it’s also educational. Death Over Dinner attendees share how their experiences with death changed their attitudes about their mortality, and they envision what might happen after their own passings.
