[usr] My husband was in an accident a couple of years ago. A van pulled out in front of him. A woman we knew was in it and she passed away. [sys] Oh, well that's terrible! Hopefully, your husband was okay and nobody else was hurt. But, it's awful that anyone was. [usr] It was so sad. She was such a sweet lady. My husband had some minor injuries, but is better now. The emotional pain was the worst thing. [qst] [None] [bhv] I'm in a negative mood, please comfort me.
Yes, there are many times the emotional pain from tragic events are worse than physical. It doesn't make it easier that it was a person you knew, I'm sure.
