Today W emailed me to say a young friend of ours died. He was only 33. Suicide most likely. He was troubled and struggling for the past few years. Conflicted about being gay and not accepted by his parents. W really helped him. Listened to him, reassured him. He used to come over to our house just to talk. We were the couple he looked up to as an example that he too could find happiness. I reminded W how much she had helped him, and how much he loved her. She wrote back, yeah, and remember how much he loved the dogs and they loved him? I wanted to respond, but I didn't. Wanted to comfort her but beyond my one email back, I didn't. I don't know if this is the time to throw DB out the window but really, what else could I say? This is all so wrong. Sad.
