On tuesday morning I recived some horrible news.
My best friends brother had collapsed and died suddenly. She was alone with him on tuedsay morning at hers, he was sick and collapsed over the bathroom door so she wasnt able to get to him. The paramedics tried CPR etc, but he was pronounced dead on arrival at hospital.
He was 36 and has 3 children.
It just goes to show how quickly life can be horribly taken away from us.
My friend isnt answering our calls at the moment, which is understandable. She has been in contact a few times via texts. I think she is deeply shocked by the whole thing, esp as she was there witnessing it all, she wishes she couldve just got through the door to give him a cuddle.
I cant even begin to imagin how her and her family are coping.
She has told me the funeral is 5th April. so a week and a half away.
I am determined to go. I want to be there for my friend, and im hoping that I will be able to think of her and her family on the day, instead of letting the anxiety take over. It is somthing I need to do and no matter what I am going to be there for her.
I just feel so so sad at the whole thing. I have tried to stay strong, but the thought of what has happened has really got to me. I havnt told my fiance or anyone how much this has got to me. I feel selfish for feeling low abuot it, as it hasnt happend to me.
Its the first time today i have cried about it - im also crying and sad thiking of how my friend is feeling and coping. I just feel so useless.
I just needed to offload a bit xx
