If I had 24 hours to live, I would stay with my family.
If I stayed with my family, I would be very happy.
If I were happy before I died, I would feel painless to die.
If I felt painless to die, my family wouldn�t feel devastated.
If my family wouldn�t feel devastated about my dying, they would go on their life.
If they went on their life, I wouldn�t worry in the heaven.
Are they grammatically correct?

I guess you wrote some sentences on suppositional mood. Yes?
i have some personal words to you:
For the third and fourth sentence, you had a mistake. Are you saying them contrary to the present situation or the future situation?From your sentences, i think you are talking about something in the future. So you may change into another auxiluary word:"would" .
So i change them for you, it's like this:]
If I would be happy before I died, I would feel painless to die.
If I would feel painless to die, my family wouldn't feel devastated. |
