One of the most traumatic times in your life is watching someone you love slowly slip away from you, not being able to help. It may be hard to accept that the one you love has died, but with time, you will grow to accept the passing of the person.

One of the hardest things that can happen in your life is the death of a person that you love. I myself understand the feeling of what it is like to cope with death, as recently I lost my 19-month-old godson. It was one of the most traumatic times in my life, watching someone whom you have loved since you first saw him slowly slip away from you, not being able to help him. It may be hard to accept that the one you love has died, but with time, it will sink in, and you will grow to accept the passing of the person.
It is best to be well organized after the death. Talk to your family as a whole, reassuring each other about life in general and that you will be ok, here are some steps to take:
Get in contact with your local vicar or reverend to inform him of the situation and begin the process of choosing a date and a plot within the graveyard. Remember it is your funeral to arrange, so they will understand if you have specific requests such as music to be played.
Once the body has be transferred to the chapel of rest, say your final farewells. The sooner the better, because obviously the body will not stay the same day to day, and it may upset you more to see the body in a poor state.
Choose who will be the service provider for the funeral. If you use coop funeral services, you will be able to have one bill instead of several. They provide transport for the body, be it a car, a horse and carriage, etc. As well as this, they provide the flower arrangements, if you wish to have these (in most cases this is so).
You may have funds saved away for your loved ones. Consider using these funds to make one great final gesture to them, as funerals usually cost around 1000+ pounds for the full service, but can cost a lot more, dependent on your individual needs.
The best way to start to deal with death is to have faith in the afterlife. As I see it, energy cannot be destroyed. It can be split apart or turned into something else, but it cannot be destroyed. We are made up of energy, so therefore we cannot die. We live on in a different and more free form.
