*sigh*. This is very sad Cléa, doubly so given the awkward circumstances. I hope you can reach the other two of the three, and all help each other along. Thanks for sharing this, and I know everyone here is sending you good thoughts… myself included.

My thoughts are with you and your friend. I’m sure she knew telepathically.

I don’t like funerals…
Sorry to hear about your friend.

Death is one of those things I don’t normally relate to as most people do. All I can say is that at the end of the day it’s always a celebration of how a person lived rather than a memorial for how they ended. With that, there is no reason to be sad, only in silent contemplation and a smile or 5 in remembrance of the things we remember a person by.

What I can say to you is that at life goes on. In loss. In gain. Through the hard times. Through the happy times. In solitude. In the company of friends who despite their loss of words still mean the world. Life just keeps going. The best we all can do is go through it with our head held high and our steps never wavering.

It’s a brand new day Clea and it’s time to put the next foot forward with us.

I’ve tried to write something that sounded supportive and warm and at the same time not cliche’. I’ve failed a few times so I’ll just say this: If we knew each other in real life and you were near by I would give you a hug and offer to buy you a drink. Sending good thoughts your way.
