So so sad

I, along with hundreds of other people out there, am devastated to be saying goodbye to shaemoh. It is just so unbelievably sad and unfair and unexpected that someone so young and full of life, hopes, dreams, promise, happiness ... could be taken from us. People say stuff like that every time someone young dies but it seems so bloody apt with Seamus. You could see how excited he was about the future and how he embraced everything with a big big smile.

He was on his way to work and was hit by a car, sustained traumatic injuries, had two rounds of neurosurgery, nearly died several times, was placed in a medically induced coma... week from hell - it's the sort of news that makes your blood freeze and the ground fall away from you.

I cannot imagine how horrible it would be for divamelisande, they had been married less than five months, they'd just moved to Sydney together, found themselves an apartment, both had new jobs and lots of zest for the life they were making together. She has lost her soulmate, a man who she had dedicated her life to, whom she adores so fervently, I've not seen two people so in love and so happy together. I know they wanted children, wanted to sing and play together, travel together, there were so many possibilities, and in one moment it's all been stripped away.

I can't comprehend how fate could deal this blow to Seamus... he was just so happy and friendly and caring and loving. He had a constant, genuine smile on his face. He was cheeky and his humour and smile were totally infectious. He had a million zany practical and impractical ways to solve any problem. He tripped over things, got electric shocks from things, could carry anything on his bike. He rode his bike from point A to point B singing, without a care in the world. He lectured me on wearing my helmet too loose and too high on my head. He was a brilliant actor, a promising singer, he gave everything 100% and had a good laugh in the process. It does my head in that this wonderful, special man has been taken from us, and I can only think wordlessly back to the good times I have spent with him.

Oh Laura. A thousand hugs and tears and no words at all. My heart goes out to you.
