Beautiful pictures! Beautiful People! Condolences to your and their loss! ?
I play with aging on, but there are certain Sims who really get in my heart and I am sad that they died, but it is at it is (and I want it that way, otherwise I would turn aging off). But knowing that in Sims, opposed to real life, there are certain methods to keep them alive for longer or make them come back in different ways makes it a little easier, so I rarely use those methods.

I must say it definitely changed my gameplay and also how I feel about a save game. Usually I would not think twice about starting over with a new sim, but somehow I feel tied to this family more so than other games. I might avoid the reviving and so on as well, just carry on with the game as per usual ;)

Does a Sim die in a different way? In TS2, if you got platinum mood at the time of death, the Sim had hula dancers to send them off ?

Oh my gosh I do rememeber that, it was such a happy occasion if a sim died platinum mood. Nope with sims 4 I thought it was quite dramatic. She got out of bed, made a sad look and then dropped to the floor, reached her hand out as if to say help me and then plopped down in the fetal position dead. Grimmy then appeared and she became like mist and changed to an urn.

Yes, I get attached to my sims too, and mostly play with aging off.

I hardly ever play with aging on, but with aging off it was more challenging, I even battled to complete her aspiration before her death, was on the last tier but just just did not make it.

I don't know how people can stand to play with aging on. Pretty much everyone I've ever known died young, so I can't deal with death in the game at all! My Sims will live forever and ever and ever and ever!

I'm glad she got to see Denise become a toddler. <3

I feel you, this really pulled at my heart strings.

I had something similar recently. The sim I started my current save with in January of 2019 died a few weeks ago. She had 9 children, 16 grandchildren and her first great grandchild had been born but they never met.
Sorry for you and your Sims' loss.

Wow that is a loooooong life she had. Sorry for your loss, but she had a good life by the sounds of it. Amira only got to see one grandchild as a toddler.
