RIP or Feel Better

My friend was hit by a car and was airlifted to a hospital. I heard so many stories already. Right now he is either dead or in a coma.:cry

 

Oh No, so sorry Z, hope for the best

 

I hope your friend makes it, say some prayers for him and his family.

 

Let's just hope and pray for the 'feel better' part!! Our prayers go out to him, his family and his friends.

 

I am sorry to hear this. Thoughts and prayers going out to him and his family.
Take care

 

I just found out his condition, and I wish I had better news. He has extensive brain damage and his legs are destroyed.:cry

 

Be with your friends and family Dawg, it helps.

 

Sorry ZDawg. Nothing I can type will do much, but sending some thoughts and prayers your way.

 

Sorry to hear this sad news of yours zdawg. Prayers going up for you, him and his family and friends.

I remember when my own son was going through this for the first time at about the same time in life that you are at. He lost a friend due to meningitis, and struggled because he had never told that friend how much his friendship meant him before he got sick. From that he learned the immense value of good friends and moving forward decided to make sure his close friends knew how much he cared about them on a regular basis. Now years on, he has 2 very loyal close friends who he trusts, and has made sure he lets them know how much their friendship means to him.

The lessons are always hard, but maybe you too can gain something from your friend's unfortunate accident that will go on to enrich your life in the future

 

Thank you everybody.
It got worse. He is braindead, and they are going to pull the plug later today.
:cry

 

I'm sitting here starring at the screen, absolutely nothing I can say. What a difficult time for you to go through. I am so sorry.

 

Sorry to hear about your friend. I've had a few friends of mine pass away within the last 4 years. None were of natural causes, and none were above the age of 20. It's definitely not easy to think about, and impossible to completely get over. Stay strong for his family.

 

His family is messed up right now. His mom was 2 hours from home when he got hit. She never even got a chance to say goodbye.:cry

 

Always a sad thing to lose a friend suddenly like that, I hope his parents do the right thing and let him live on elsewhere.

 

I can't imagine being a parent and having to tell the doctors to pull the plug.

 

Ya, neither can I being a parent. Oh, I meant that your friend could give life to someone else in need.

 

Oh. I knew that... :-o

 

They pulled the plug at 4:00 yesterday, and he was pronounced dead at 10:00 pm
:cry

I am sorry. Having someone taken unexpectedly is always so hard. Cherish your memories.
Even though I don't know him or his family, my thoughts and prayers go out to them and you.

 

Thank you.

Idk yet. The manager doesnt know yet. After the family tells our company, the manager will tell us.

 

How sad, even knowing it's coming is still a shock as I'm sure it was for you. You not only feel bad for the loss but it makes you think of your own mortality, that can be depressing and scary. Don't avoid it, talk.
Try to focus on him as a person, things he did , said, was he funny, goofy, kind. Also talk to him. if you get a thought back in your mind it may possibly be him.
I will say a prayer for his parents to get through this worse of all possible times.

 

He was awesome. He always kept me cracking up

 

You'll always have that. I still have memories of kids when I was in school and some of the craziness still makes me chuckle, what a pleasure it was to have known them

 

They have a story\show on on the local news in 15 minutes. Im going to watch it.

 

I am really sorry to hear that My prayers are with him and his family.

 

Thank you.

 

Very sorry to hear that, zDawg . I'm praying for you and your friend's family.

 

Sorry to hear this

 

The wake is today and tommorrow. I would like to pay my respects but I can't. I just really can't do it. It is so depressing. I really don't want my last memory of him to be a bad one :'(

 

Thank you. And yes, i did care about him very much. He will be loved and missed.
And emma is a nice name. I have an aunt named emma and a sister emily.

 

I don't do funerals either. Made the casket piece for my grandmothers service but never went. I'm sure she understood. They aren't in there any more anyway.

 

I just like the last memory of someone to be happy.

 

2 good friends of mine died in the past couple years, one very recently. i went to the wakes but i wouldnt actually go up to the casket. i wouldnt want people staring at me when i die. i pay my respect through their family.

 

I didnt go but my mom went. She said his face was destroyed. His eyes and lips were bulging. After he was hit he flew 40 feet in the air.

 

Yeah, I was thinking, "why did they have an open casket" ?

Will probably make your mom a little more cautious with you guys now for a while.

 

we don't know. he looked really messed up.

Yup.
