Lost my cousin yesterday
I got a phone call from his step daughter she was bawling ambulance was att he house to plz come over right away at 3am. I said Ill be right there. My 41 yr cousin is a quad and the last year he's had a alot of health issues more then normal.
he wasnt breathing his fiance said (my best freind).
John died and Im not handling it very good.
I cant stop crying
.
I knew that he would go someday and he was living on borrowed time. he's been a quad since he's been 16-hockey accident.
Just wanted to let u know i wouldnt be on much this weekend and probly some next week.
Im trying so hard to hold on the good memories that we(hubby) shared with him (so so many).
I know he's happy looking down on us and telling us dont cry, im not in pain anymore , Im not sick anymore, no more surgeries.
he's been through alot in life.
he's touched so many people including me , hubby and kids.

I am so very sorry for your loss.
If you could kick in the pants the person responsible for your problems, you wouldn't be able to sit for a month.
Did you know that a 4 year student paying $20,000/year who finances their education graduates with over $103,000 in debt to start? But a student who works and pays cash and takes 6 years to graduate ends with $6,300 in their pocket! So much for "getting a head start by financing!"

I am so sorry, miss_thrifty. How wonderful to have had someone in your life who meant so much to you. I believe a measure of how successful we are as contributing members of the human race is how many people will miss us when we are gone. Sounds like he was very successful.

Miss_thrifty - how sorrowful for you and your family. Cry all you want - this is your loss and crying is so totally natural. You will hve a long time for all the good memories and they will pop up when you least expect it and make you smile. How wonderful you shared so much. Take care and know that God is with you.
Travel light. The baggage of the past can only hold you back.
