Hi Regina,
Death is a very common thing to obsess over. No one wants to lose their loves ones. But they are here now! Enjoy them, you have no reason to believe they will die any time soon. The chances of them living are far more better than them dying. Focus on that. Talk to them about it too, they love you. Relax, thoughts are just thoughts, in most cases they mean nothing. The only thing you are doing incorrectly is reacting in a negative way to certain thoughts, and I understand. It's hard not too. Be happy.
