I'm very sorry, Suela.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
I can't even. And I'm still in better shape than my sister, who expected to have to deal with this in 10 years, or maybe 20. But he was 66.
Dozens of people showed up at the house, with food and wine and flowers for days. Which was lovely. I don't think my sister ate anything all day, and my nieces did only when forced to. I finally went home at 10 because dog, and will go back in the morning. One of my brothers came up from San Jose today, and the other 2 will probably come out this weekend.
We'll be okay in the near term, but in the long term my sister has basically never lived alone, and my nieces are in their 20s. Nobody expected this. He didn't get to see his daughters married, or get to be a grandfather. Which he would have been great at.
It's just so fucking unfair. THAT MAN in the White House lives into his 70s and contributes nothing positive to the world, and my BIL, a generous and sweet human being, who only wanted to play his saxophone and watch the As and swim in San Francisco Bay, gets taken from us early. What kind of justice is that?
Fuck.

Absolutely no justice at all. I'll see you tomorrow, dear friend.

So unfair, Consuela. Not how anything should be.

My heart is breaking for your family, Consuela. It is horribly unfair and painful.
Tommyrot, great news all round. Grateful that Erin is able to scope out potential apartments. Super jealous of the credit score. Well done.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
I have no words for how Unfair this is, Consuela.

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's completely unfair, 'suela. I wish that we could change it for all of you.
Congratulations on the job, tommyrot, and good luck apartment hunting!

Sending good thoughts for all the ones surprised by their bereavement. I am so sorry for the pain and loss. Sending coping-ma.
