Died of a Broken Heart

My auntie and uncle died within 3 days of each other, they had been married for 65 years, and they say he died of a broken heart, do you think that is possible?

Oh YES, I think so.... ah love

Yes, I believe so.

With out a doubt

It's a known phenomena. However, if one survives the first year, they ususally last a lot longer.

I do believe you can die of a broken heart. you just lose the will to live alone after spending a lifetime together.
anyway.....Cheers, from Mandy in OZ :)

My grandmother had dementia when grandpa died, otherwise it may have happened with her. She's still heartbroken when she hears about it, but forgets about it soon after (a mixed blessing).

Wow, weird. That previous message is mine. Got stuck in the tide here I guess. Sending it back out.

Absolutely...I was afraid it was going to happen to my mom when my dad died. We kept her busy and involved with family happenings and reminded her how much she was loved and needed so to keep her out of a slump. -Mia
