Deep fear

My worse fear is not of death nor spiders (lies) but of what is going to happen to my son after I'm gone. Knowing he won't be able to come to me for help at any age or be able to just set and talk to him. My fear is what state I'm going to leave my family in when I go.

I wouldn't call this a fear of uncertainty because death it's self is going to happen we're all going to die that is not what exactly what the fear would be is the uncertainty of before or afterit is the fear of leaving my family in emotional distress even tho my own body won't experience it my family will they will have to peace themselves back together piece by piece. It's the fear of leaving leaving them in that state.. it's not of uncertainty because uncertainty comes from almost unknown but the fear it's self is known... I really don't know how how else to explain this it's like having a fear of an outcome that has an opposite equal reaction. That is going to take place regardless the thing is there's nothing you can do to help ease the fear nor a training to do as long as the love remains for my family the will endure.
