Sorry to hear this Art. It is very difficult when things like this happen. I feel your pain and of those involved and it sucks. Life is just hard sometimes and dealing with these things never gets any better.

Sorry for your family's loss Art.

A few years ago we saw an older man walking quickly down the street and didn't think much of it. A short time later, a panicked young woman drove around looking for him. That's when we realized he was an Alzheimers patient, and she was his home-care nurse.
Sometimes it's easier to just tune out what's around us.

Art, Our prayers go out to your family as well as Nathan's. Very tragic. I concur with the other posters that as a parent (and now a grandparent) this is the worst news one could get. You appear to be a man of faith and from your posts in this forum your family shares in that. It's in times like this we need Him most. I pray that all those affected will feel His presence and experience His comfort.

Don't know what to say about this, there really are no words.
She's got a long road ahead of her though. Be there for her.

This past week... has been a blur...

This past week... has been a blur...

From the candlelight vigil held at Trenton High School, attended by at least 400-500 people, including Nathan's teachers, coaches and the mayor of the city... These were luminaries in the bleachers and we lit and set aloft a bunch of the Chinese lanterns. Prayers and words of remembrance were offered, and there was much weeping. I can't tell you how much it hurts me to hear my daughter cry...




Visitation is tomorrow (Wed) and Thursday and the funeral is noon on Friday. We'll go to the funeral home tomorrow evening, then the funeral at the church on Friday, the girls will be home from school that day. I'll take Friday off so we can all spend the day together. Damn, this is tough!

The girls have met with the school counselor and Beth has the name of a Christian counselor that the girls will see ASAP. We haven't been sleeping well and I'm hoping we can start getting things "back to normal" after the funeral.

Such a horrible thing to have to go through.
I lost my best friend at age 18. Car accident. Alcohol was involved.
It changes you.
Education is always expensive or painful.
It is never the same afterwards.
But you get on.
Sort of.
You learn what is important.
And it is NOT what THEY tell you it is.

Nobody deserves this....I am sorry to hear of your daughters grief and that "helpless" feeling you get as a parent. love and protect her she will need it. Don't forget to deal with your own emotions as well. God bless you and your family.

ps; I am off to phone my own adult daughter right now and tell her that I love her.

Mike

Jeez Art, I am so used to thinking about how these things happen to other people and not me.

Its strange how emotionally involved I am with you and the pelican family.

It may be strange but I really appreciate this extended family, and your family is in my thoughts.

I think this may get me opening up a little.

I wish I had something earth shattering to share but i don't for now.

Stay strong. There are many folks supporting your family.
