sadness

A good friend of mine lost his 15 month old baby on December 12th. I just found out this morning

I'm stunned, too. I have no suggestions, but am thinking of your friends'
loss. So terrible.

[chriswicke]

thank you. I'd say more, but it's not my place to mention it at this point.

Reconnecting is good. If they haven't had the funeral yet - try to make it to that. Yea, being far away sucks. Be there, call just to make sure they're okay (I hate saying that, because they're not really 'okay' but you know what I mean)

Funeral's tomorrow and far away. There's not a realistic way to make it.

I do know what you mean, but I was told they aren't answering their phone right now, I'll have to call later just to give my condolences to a person.

I can't imagine what they are going through.

I feel the need to say something, but have no words for you. It's sad.

I'm with Curt--just reconnecting and being there if the friend wants to chat, cry, whatever...

Man...

Oh no!

How terrible for your friends. I can only imagine how they must be feeling.

If they aren't answering the phone right now and you can't make the funeral, you might just write them a little note for now. A few sentences even, to let them know you're thinking of them. (Some friends of my family lost their adult son and they were quite appreciative of even the short little letter I wrote them. I was surprised; I'd had a hard time thinking of what to say.)
