One thing that I don't understand is the concept of "dying alone"... I mean, if I die one day at 45 on my way home from work by suddenly collapsing on the street of a heart attack... what difference does it make whether I have a wife and kids waiting for me at home or not? "Dying alone" only seems to apply to people dying of a terminal illness such as cancer and having no one holding their hand while they're in a hospital bed waiting to die. But if your partner dies before you... you'll die alone too. Especially if you never had kids or have any other relatives to support you.
