Mom called today with the news that my aunt died. I knew she was in the hospital because of a heart attack, but all I've been hearing is how well she was doing, how she was talking and laughing and how she was going to go home soon, and now I get a phone call about how she is dead. And because I'm here in Muncie I didn't even get to visit her with everyone else.

I feel a little blindsided. All this time mentally preparing myself for my grandmother to die and now I'm going to a funeral for Aunt Joan. Who always had lemon drops in her purse and angel figurines in her house and who took my crappy junior high poetry to her church so she could brag on me, so proud that I was a writer.

And I didn't even get to see her.


Now add to that that one my liitle sister's best friends, a kid I've known for years, tried to commit suicide a few days ago, and has been missing since he got out of the hospital, and no one has been able to find him, and I just want to pull the blanket over my head and stay in bed.

HUGS. Is there anything I can do to take your mind off and/or help?

omg, I'm so sorry to hear all this, hun ♥

Even if you didn't get to visit her though, she knows you would have if you could. She knows you love her *hugs*

I hope they find your sister's friend - that's terrible. I lost my friend to what everyone thinks was a suicide 2 weeks ago. You'll be in my thoughts, and I'm here if you need anything - I know we don't know each other that well yet, but that's what friends are for :)

Oh, no! I'm so sorry! *hugs and more hugs* I know there's not much I can do ... but say the word and I'll do it!

My condolences to everyone. I lost my aunt suddenly back in 2002, when she and my mom (her sister) were fighting. She used to take us on trips all the time, and was like another mother to me.

Shit, man.

There are not nearly enough nice things in the world to make up for this.

I'm so sorry. I hope things get better really soon.

Wow. The universe really knows how to kick you when you're down. T_T

I know there isn't anything I can say that could possibly make this better, and I'm not going to try, but I want you to know that if you need anything - even just someone to rant about life at - just ask.

I hope things take a turn for the better for you, very soon. Just remember that we're all wishing for things to improve for you with all our hearts.
