Such sad news LadyScozz and these things always come as a huge shock.

My youngest daughter was one of the oldest children in her class at school
She started school in 1998 in a class of 30 children who should all be turning 21 yrs old this year.
In the last 4 years, 3 boys from this one class have passed away.
( 2 from illness and one from violence)

Justl ast week, a 4th boy died from meningitis..

How very sad LadyScozz, my thoughts are with you and your friend. Such a shock.

A friend of mine lived with her brother, they both got up to have breakfast, he sitting at the table. She went to fetch the teapot, and by the time she came back, he had passed away.

More bad news.

My OH's cousin's husband died on Tuesday. He was also in his early 60s.

She lost her first husband when he was very young (late 20s).

This is an awful week.

Oh Scozz, my deepest sympathy on your sad loss of your friend and your husband's relative too.

Sudden deaths are always a terrible shock but as others have said, better that than see someone you love suffer for a long time with terminal illness.

My friend's husband died in a similar way, she was at the dressing table chatting away to him as he sat up in bed, when she didn't get a reply she looked more closely and he was slumped over, dead.

I suppose it's the fact that there was no time to say the things you might want said, and you wonder if you could have done anything to save your loved one.

My heart goes out to both those ladies who have lost their partners, your husband's cousin must be devastated after suffering two losses like that and your friend will need your love and support like never before.

May both men rest in peace.

Wisechild, I am sorry about your friend who took his life, may he rest in peace too, he must have been very troubled.

This is a really horrible week.

OH came home with the sad news that another friend has died.

He has been very sick for a long long time, but it's still very sad.

I'm going to find a quiet spot and have a weep.
