Uncle Died
Defense Mechanism: Rainalization - Freud
When my uncle died it would be the second death I would have experienced in my family. This time instead of being in denial, I would rationalize the reason of his passing was due to his sickness and the fact he was suffering to deal with the coping of his death.
