" your not alone. I think a lot of people are afraid of death. Be it their own death or anything having to do with death. I was afraid of everything death most of my life. 8 years ago my mother died of cancer, she was fairly young. When they sent her home for hospice care, It was my home she came to. She died here in my home, my father and I were with her... all that to say I don't fear death like I use to.
I hope this helps, and welcome to the site
hugs
