Sad and Scary Stuff
A good friend of Brigette’s mom passed away today. She was only 57. Thursday night she had a stroke, out of the blue. Apparently she suffered from multiple more strokes after she got to the hospital and passed away early Sunday morning. How scary and sad is that?
I met her only twice. Last Christmas and at our wedding, which she attended only two months ago. A very happy and good person. She was involved in community work and helped other people. Never got a chance to take it easy, retire and just enjoy life, always concerned about the well being of others. She will be missed by her family and friends as well as the people she took care of.
This tragedy also raises two points (and it’s surely not the first time they have been made):
- Why do bad things like that happen to good people?
- Life’s too freaking short.
Rest in peace, Heather. My condolences to her family and friends.
