Although a year has passed since Senator McCain’s death, his family is still mourning his loss. A few months ago, Megan McCain wrote on Instagram to mourn her passing:
“345 days. I woke up a week ago early in the morning and tried to call your cell phone – I forgot I can’t anymore. How can I do this? I don’t know. “
The TV personality also said the loss of a loved one doesn’t get any easier: “We just learn to hide our grief better because it makes a lot of people very uncomfortable. Our culture avoids any reminders. of death and agony. one of the ultimate taboos.”
Senator McCain was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer a year before his death. The politician had run in the presidential race twice before, but did not win.
