Oh, Maria, I'm so, so sorry. We're all here for you, and we won't give up on you. Sending love your way.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Maria, I am so sorry for your loss, and I am so glad this community was here for you last night. And as I regularly tell my 5 year old, each person is in control of his or her own actions. (No, Peter, your sister did not make you hit her by sticking out her tongue. You made that choice.)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I'm so sorry, Maria. Echoing what everyone else said, we're here for whatever you need.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
It hurts worse this morning. I didn't think that was possible. This weight on my chest is crushing.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
{{{Maria}}} Love, I ache for you. I wish I could make it all better, but life just sucks beyond the telling in so many ways. -t has wise advice and I'm sorry you and she are learning and sharing in this wisdom in such a brutal way.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
do you have a friend or family member who can be with you physically? We aren't supposed to do this by ourselves.
We haven't for hundreds of thousands of years.
We need other people to help us pick up the pieces, help us with the mundane.
