At the end of my freshman year in college, a girl on my dorm hall drowned in a swimming pool during a end-of-year celebration. I saw her being pulled from the pool and mourned with my fellow dormmates the next day after she was removed from life-support because she was brain-dead. Also, my brother died from a massive heart attack in his early thirties. <br /><br />It doesn't take much for me to remember how I felt after either of those deaths. When an older person who has had a full life dies, I can celebrate the life that was lived, but when a young person who has so much ahead of them dies, that's truly a time of grief.Beth Groundwaterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13999372882748655834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-61788004038196743222009-05-27T09:50:40.383-05:002009-05-27T09:50:40.383-05:00wonderful interview and a good appetiser for the b...wonderful interview and a good appetiser for the books.

Beth, reading this I can't believe that I never asked you if you experienced the death of a young person or researched it - I know you do a lot of preparation for your books.
