Fate has been throwing you some nasty shit lately. Please remember: you can come here any time day or night and you will find friends. We're not just pixels on a screen - there's a feeling and caring human being behind each post.

Please remember: you can come here any time day or night and you will find friends. We're not just pixels on a screen - there's a feeling and caring human being behind each post.

But there was once when I was going through a rough patch in life and online friends helped me immensely. This is just paying it forward.

[Backseat Driver]

80. So many are perishing still as we begin vaccinating. I am sorry to hear your news.

[FailureToCommunicate]

81. The Covid scourge is indiscriminate. I am so sorry it found your brother, LuckyCharms.

I lost my older brother in September, not directly to covid, but it was a contributing factor. And of course, due to the pandemic restrictions, we were not allowed travel to North Carolina to be with him or his family afterwards.

Covid sucks.

Trump sucks.

Republicans suck.

This whole past year has sucked.

I'll stop there.

Again, sorry to hear your sad news.

[duhneece]

82. Sadness all around that...

I have an older sister that I'm not 100% sure is alive (maybe dementia?)...and a younger sister I haven't spoken to for over 8 years.
And still I grieve for you, with you.

[Generic Other]

83. My condolences

So many sad stories. We are all grieving.

[diva77]

84. So very sorry, Lucky.

[Ilsa]

85. My condolences. I'm sorry you weren't able

to have a close relationship with him.

I think we are getting to a point where everyone either knows someone who died or has a family member who died. I'm sorry you've joined this unofficial club.

[eleny]

97. I know the wierdness of that

my fucked up sister died a little over a year ago. it is such a strange feeling to have someone you grew up with and knew so well die and yet not have a sudden deep feeling of loss (because that loss happened already). been there.

104. I'm so sorry

even though you weren't close it hurts to lose family.

[TigressDem]

105. Awful. So sorry to hear that.

Sometimes not being close makes it worse.

Alive there was always the chance of things improving. Now. It is what it was.

Although, after my Mom died I still worked through stuff, understood more and forgave. So it isn't impossible to repair from one's own side of the fence.

PEACE.

[LuckyCharms]

106. Thank you, everyone...

Your kind words mean a lot.
