The End of the World

[bluefirebird]

You see it all the time on the TV - how people react when their loved ones die.

Well, I can't take it in. It doesn't seem real. No, not my Dad (who I assume is still safely in the hospital), my other half's son-in-law rang me to say that Pete (my other half) appears to have died in his sleep on Tuesday night.

Now what do I do?

My whole world has fallen apart.

I'm numb, my heart rate has gone bananas. I'm not sure I even believe it, but Gary wouldn't play a cruel joke like that - in fact he's got the horrendous job of breaking it to all of Pete's nearest and dearest.

And I can't get hold of any of our friends on the phone either (although I guess half of that is because my body isn't working properly right now and I can't type properly!). I need to drive over there, but I have enough sense to know I'm in no fit state to drive at the moment.


And don't worry about it, I know that you don't know what to say, I wouldn't if I was reading it about someone else, and I sure as hell don't know what to say now that it's happening to me...

I'm so sorry Lisa. I'm glad that you arrived safely. My family's thoughts and prayers are with you and yours. If you need anything, please do not hesitate to let any of us know. Even if it is just a shoulder to lean on.
