Maybe not so much die as something horrible happening to her (hm, tough question actually. Maybe I was never worried she'd die before, but I am now, lol). I could be overly sensitive and protective regarding my T though, given that she is already disabled and in a wheelchair. I tear up at the thought of her being hurt (physically or emotionally) with no one to help her.
I'm actually mostly worried that my T will be alone when she gets older. She doesn't have any kids, is single....who will be there to take care of her as she gets older? To hold her hand when her time comes? It makes me sad that she might be alone (and, of course, I imagine myself being there for her).
I really think, as humans, true therapy is impossible. Too many emotions to get in the way. *sigh*
