Good Morning everyone,
My mom called me last night to tell me about a man from our town that was really sick.I didn't know him very well but I hung out with his sister all while I was growing up. He was 15 yrs older then her so by the time I came along he was already moved out and married.
He at a anurizam ( I probably didn't spell that right,I've never had to spell it before.)He was air lifted to the closet city and while they were waiting to do surgery on him the main valve to his heart started to bleed. They were going to put off surgery b/c they couldn't operate like this.Finally they said "if we don't operate now he will just bleed to death".
My mom called me last night around 11:00 and then she called back again at 12:00.He died in the operating room with a heart attack.
When things like this happen I get all cript out.No one knows what his going on inside of our bodies.Anything could happen at anytime.He was only 42.And he as a son who is 20 and a wife.He left alot of people behind.
Needless to say, I didn't get much sleep last night.I can't help but think about the pain that people are dealing with.I know someday I am going to have to but I hope it won't be yet for a very long time.
God Bless,
Lori
P.S I know that this is probably not what everyone wanted to read first thing in the morning but I had to get it off of my chest....
 
Hi CityGirl

There is never a good time to tell such news you have my deepest sympathies. It is so true we don't know what is around the corner that is why I think it is so important to tell the people you love you care and show it.

<<<cyberhug>>> to you, your family and his family.

But one thing I will say is feel what you feel don't hide don't run from it this is how you feel its good to let others know. I know you will get lots of support here.

My thoughts are with you.

Hi City Girl. It's alright to talk about it, we all need to get things off our chest now and then. My prayers go out to his family.
 
Hi Citygirl,
I'm so sorry to hear your sad news. I'm sure you are very shaken up. Sudden tragedies with no warning whatsoever are so hard to handle. Several years ago, a lady I knew died suddenly of epilepsy. I will never forget Donna because she always had the biggest smile on her face (she practically wore a smile 24 hours a day). I have never met anyone since quite like her. She was one of those people that just made you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. So loveable. She was in her mid to late 20's and had epilepsy her whole life but kept it to herself so none of us was aware of her illness (she probably didn't want to worry people, that's the kind of person she was). I will never stop missing her. Sorry to ramble, but sudden tragedies like this always makes me think of this lady that I was so fortunate to know.

I hope you feel better soon and you obviously have a very kind heart otherwise you wouldn't be shaken up. Take care.
 
It seems that there are so many sad stories lately. I read them and reflect on the past year and pray for everyone. This past year has been a very emotional and trying year for my family. And it continues to be today. But we can be thankful for what we have even in the darkest of times. It's hard.
