58. Sorry for your loss. So many people have been taken from us due to drug addiction--it is a healt

..epidemic! In my family as well..we lost a nephew in Dec.only 21 was ok after high school went to service returned home; not sure what changed--he seemed ok--found a good job, then ?

Then in Jan sister in law [in her 50s] died of covid19..gad never been sick in her life only cold..one day came home from work asked her don to take her to emergency--two weeks later she was gone. Her death really shook me me..took care of things that I' ve been putting off. Had 1st moderna shot, 2nd next week.

Yes., life can be sad especially when a young life has left us--their life cut short. I'll light a candle for your loved ones.

Take care. Paz.
