Three people from my family died quite recently from cancer and old age. These three people where very close to me and Ive found it very hard to come to terms with it.

I understand how you feel. I think the best way to handle it is to not think about it. No, im not telling you to forget about it, just think positive. Go out with friends, eat icecream, laugh, and just have fun. It may seem hard to do but just try.
Best of Luck,

cancer is very hard to put in prospective things you can do mabe attend support groups help your family deal with theses life changes its probably most horrific on your family and if you involve a celebration of life not demeaning thoughts and memories my mom passed away from cancer my dad heart disease about 7-8 years apart i found a celebration of life helped me get through the loss why it isn't the answer for some it was the answer for me they are in a better place and their not suffering they were suffering when they were still hear with us its the process we go through and our familys will have to deal with theses life changes when we pass old age is something we all go through and the body has lived a very resourceful life and it was our turn meaning we lived a good full life and we were there to experience it with our love ones its hard to come to terms with it but we have to carry on their destiny if we stall we can't do that think of the things they were going through and how hard it was for them they raised us up and we conquered we can still carry on their principles and remember them in the best way possible you are doing what they would want us to do that then we can live for them this is what they would want us to do thou its hard it does get better help others in the family that are going through the same thing you feel only then will you beable to carry on
The best way of dealing with grief is to accept it, it is to realize that death is certain, that you and me have to die, there is no escape from death, everybody who is born must die. Because we do not learn the art of acceptance, we live with grief. Nothing in this world happens by luck, everything is a reaction of our own action. We must learn first, to accept and then, to surrender. We must learn to understand that there is only one way to overcome grief and that is enlightenment. It is realization we are not this body that experiences physical pain, not even the mind that has grief, not the ego that gets angry, that hates with revenge and jealousy. Realization of the truth, enlightenment is the way to overcome all grief. Therefore, we must learn to be enlightened, we must move on that path and not cry, look up at the sky and ask why.
