And Death shall have no dominion

[ailbhe]

We really need help, hints or advice on helping Linnea come to terms with Death. It's not her death or my death or anyone in particular's death that's bothering her - it's Death itself. She wants all the dead people to come back to life, so that she can meet them, and for no-one ever to die ever again.

And she has been very upset about it three days running, now.

I'm getting worried.

I don't know if it of any consolation, but as a child, I went through a period of a couple of months (at least I think it was around that long) when I'd regularly go into hysterics because I couldn't cope with the concept of the edges of the universe and the beginning of time. (Mum was an atheist, so no creation myths for us! ;-) )

I stopped because I eventually learnt to think around it, and just accept I couldn't understand it although even as an adult I wouldn't try and ponder it for long.

In my completely unqualified opinion, and not knowing Linnea at all, I'd say it something you're going to have to help come to terms with herself, you can maybe supply with the tools to do so (books, and having discussions with her), but she's going to need to do it herself.

Good luck.
