Have you ever been physically sick when given bad news?

Two accounts come to mind. I went to the funeral of a beloved friend, who was a former neighbor who was always kind to me. Her sudden death shocked me. As soon as I looked down at her, my nose started bleeding profusely. I went into a private area and parishioner(s) had to bring ice and towels.

During the time my husband was dying, I experienced a lot of stress for more reasons than one. After the Janazah (funeral), which caused more stress, there was another ceremony scheduled for that evening. I got such a terrible headache, I couldn't even attend.
 

Every day, when I turn on the TV and watch the news, there is too much sad news. I feel unwell, have a lump in my throat, and a constant headache. My husband is falling into a deep depression. We should stop watching TV, but we can't :confused:
