    horrible/sad weekend

    Wow, didnt know a 3 day weekend could be so horrible. Friday night, a friend of mine was in the bed of a truck on a dirt road and tryed passing another truck at a high rate of speed and the truck rolled. Killed my friend and my other was seriously injured.
    Later friday night, my brother-in-laws best friend was in a bad crash after leaving a party drunk. He was the only one in the car and no details but I do know there was noone else involved. It killed him also. I had met the guy a few times but even then, its a horrible feeling. Him and his mom were so close. He helped her out so much. She basically only has my brother in law and his other friends to help her out now.
    Last night, a "buddy" of mines sister who was 13* had a bad ashma (sp) attack at the local community center. She was in the dirls bathroom and went into cardiac (sp again) arrest. She was flown to the hospital 10 miles away and was pernounced dead at the hospital.
    I just dont understand. I did believe it when the 2nd, and then the 3rd happened. Yeah 2 of them made the bad choices but still. I dont know what to think about it. It scares me that all this happened and that it happens at all different ages. Yeah I knew that but never thought about it until it struck so close. All three family will be in my prayers.

    So sorry to hear of so much tragedy. It has to be so hard losing anyone , let alone three so young. My heart goes out to each of their families.

    Re: horrible/sad weekend

    I'm sorry to hear that you're going through all that... having people you know die (especially when they're young) is no fun. The worst funeral I ever had to go to was a 1-year old little boy's funeral...open casket. I felt heartsick for days... Try to emotionally hang in there, but don't expect to be "strong"...it's okay to let things like this effect you.

    I am really sorry to hear about that; it does seem like tragic events happen in threes, at least in my experience.
