friend at work, known her for 10+ years, has an S. spoke to him Wednesday, last week. about cartoons and video games, which apparently me, D14 and him all enjoy. told me he was going to boot camp and he’s going to miss those. yesterday morning, same lady friend came to work and she got a phone call from SO that the kid took his own life.
i went home that morning, since i work the night before, knocked on D14’s door and just broke down. Told her what happened.
Reason for sharing, even though i know unfortunate events like this happen all the time, is i know the people involved. Just wondering what my friend, the mom. is going through right now. what were her last words to him. what would be her last memorable thought about him. Asked the same questions to myself, what if i lost, heaven forbid. my D14? Then wondered about WW. D14 and her haven’t spoken in a long time. haven’t had dinner at the same time in a while. What would WW’s last words to her? last memorable thought about her?
If you have kids hug them everyday and tell them you love them. if you already do, hug them tighter.
