A family that is close friends with my family is going through a terrible time. A few days ago, the husband of the daughter in the family who was my friend growing up, only about in his 40s, died of a sudden heart attack. The next day, her brother had to put down his beloved dog. Their mother just had to be hospitalized.

I'm just really heartbroken for them now.

  • Oh, that's terrible. It would be awful at any time, but when bad things happen around the holidays, it just seems magnified. 
    What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

  • My aunt just died the night before last at age 61 after a short battle with liver cancer. I feel so sad for her family this christmas. My other aunt died about a month ago from cancer as well. I wasn't super close with either of them, but my dad is having a rough time with it all. Meanwhile, he and his girlfriend of 5 and a half years broke up and he's laid up after having foot surgery. He's having a pretty crappy holiday.

    So sorry for what your friend is going through.
  • That's terrible.  Sending you and your friend's family hugs and my sympathy.

  • So many Internet hugs coming your way.
  • Update: My friend's parents are not expected to attend the funeral, scheduled for tomorrow morning. Not only is her mother still hospitalized, her father is not well either.

    My parents and I are going to the funeral and offered as much help as we can. Your thoughts, prayers, sympathy and hugs are much appreciated. Happy holidays to everyone!
  • im so sorry to hear this. T&P


  • Wow, what a nightmare.  I will definitely be praying for your friend, her family, and your family.
