I got up today and checked a few blogs. On KJ's blog I wrote "Happy Tuesday....I hope."
Guess what? It hasn't been a Happy Tuesday. It has been quite sad. I guess you could say
that I am in shock. One of my friends passed away yesterday. She, her husband and two kids
were on vacation at a beach, in another state, as they do every year. My friend is only in her
early 40's. 40-41. She has had bad health-as in asthma for sometime. According to what
I have heard, she said she wasn't feeling well yesterday and went to lay down. Her husband
was in another room at their rented condo playing cards with the kids (ages 8 and 12).
Her husband went to check on her and felt that she was cold. That's it...just like that....she
was gone. The husband and the kids are driving back to KY right now. They are doing an autopsy back where they were and then flying the body back home.
People!!!!! I am so in shock! I feel so bad for these kids, her husband. I can't imagine the shock and sadness they are feeling right now. There whole world has been knocked upside down and
things will never be the same. So now I'm asking for your prayers for this family. They are going to need God's comfort. This husband happens to be my husband's best friend. They are like brothers. The kids call me and my husband "aunt and uncle". I am so scattered right now.
Again, I just can't believe she's gone. I just can't imagine them all in their car, driving 12 long hours with out their mom; without his wife. Shock....that's all I feel.
