No title - sometimes there are no words

There are no titles here. No words are accurate.

My 23 year old cousin is dead.

She died this morning. She was driving to work and got clipped by a lorry. She was fine but her car was a bit damaged. She got out to exchange insurance details with the driver and got hit by another lorry. Massive internal injuries, now lying in Basildon morgue.

I can't fucking get my head around this. This is Louise, my cousin who is like such a fucking nice person and described by everyone who knew her as gorgeous, who I last saw on Xmas Day having a laugh with about the food and who fucking didn't deserve any of this. Fucking lying in Basildon Morgue age 23.

My auntie, her mum, is in shock and hasn't digested it yet. My mum loved Louise like she was her own daughter rather than your typical aunt/niece relationship, she's broken up. I'm staying with my dad at the moment, he's gutted and his side of the family is gutted. They might be divorced but he always liked Louise because she was such a nice girl.

I wish I'd gotten to know her better. I wish I'd taken more time to get closer to her. I always thought she'd be here.

RIP Louise. One in a million, sorely missed.
