You know what's odd? I am wondering if people who are with the person to the very end can truly grasp how that person looks to other people - I mean, if they were sick a long time or lost a lot of weight or whatever. The reason I am wondering this is because my sister in law seemed oblivious to the fact that my brother had LOST 100 POUNDS and his suit she brought up to the funeral home simply swallowed him, even though the funeral home did the best they could and pinned it up a lot. I mean, honestly, to me he looked awful but she seemed to think he had just lost "a little" weight. Look, he was tall and wasn't at all fat but he went from 240 to under 140 lbs. She honestly couldn't seem to see that.
