Scenario

When anticipatory grief overshadows present moments

My wife has been declining from ALS for eight months and last night I found myself researching what happens after she dies instead of spending time with her.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The mind flees toward imagined futures to escape the unbearable intensity of loving someone who is leaving.
