I have now declared the deaths of two people. I don't think it's something I could easily get used to. One of them was in her late 20s, and I watched her grieving father fill out an autopsy form. He said to me, "I never thought I'd be doing this," and I had no words for him. I watched her grieving mother sit by her bedside for hours after she passed, weeping and talking with her.
Parenthood scares the hell out of me after moments like this.
