Yes, it's normal to feel guilty about it. Somehow, we feel that we could have and should have done more to help them...even when it was beyond our control.

There is always some unfinished business that everyone has when something this unexpected happens.

It's normal for some people. Everyone has regrets, and it can feel stronger for some people than others.

Yes, especially if you didn't interact with them as much as you should've.

It's known as "survivor's guilt"

it's not uncommon

I sure do. Two in one house passed within weeks of each other, both from undiagnosed brain metastasis of different cancer. I should have known they were sick but they always had pretended not to understand me for so long, I took their insanity as a personal insult. I thought they would tease me to the end. " No, I don't see nothing. No, you don't have a point..."
