Oh, god. Michael's cousin committed suicide today.

They were stepping him down off one med and transitioning him to another. And he hadn't been doing well, but they didn't think...he'd do that. He'd had issues for a long time, but still, it's a huge shock. Nobody saw it coming.

Michael's mom nearly found him. Wesley's mom called her when he didn't answer his door. And the two of them couldn't break the door down, so they called one of Wesley's sisters, and she found him, which I can't even comprehend.

My heart hurts so badly for Jean and Calvin. He helped them with everything, and they did all kinds of things together, and I don't know what they're going to do without him. And I don't want them to blame themselves, but I can't even imagine what they're going through, and they're probably going crazy with what-ifs.

We're going up Thursday for the funeral, maybe tomorrow if they need us, but I'm afraid his parents will feel compelled to be in host mode if we go too early. And I want to take some food up so they have one less thing to worry about (god, I know, but it's a Southern thing and I cannot help myself, plus I want to do something).

I don't even know. I feel so bad for everybody in this.
