Wow 2008 must be the year of death or something I don't know, maybe they're having a vacancy open house or something in the after life.
First my best friend's mom, who was close to me and my mom, died from alcohol/liver problems. 9 months later, my best friend decides to stick his head inside a conveyor belt and kill himself because of it, just before I could reunite my friendship with him. And now here's my mom, close to death as we speak in a nursing home, suffering from dementia for 5 years now, everyone indicates its almost her time. I even have a spiritual advisor calling me up since 2 weeks ago.
Well I hope Mr. Soul Stealer *cough* I mean Loving God is having a ball and this all must be good news to him. It must feel good being an almighty powerful being CAPABLE of knowing the future of everybody and CAPABLE of preventing bad stuff from happening.
Mom, best friend, and his mom - Talk about a triple whammy - what are the odds of that happening in a year's time frame?

Please be brave and accept the facts. I lost my father when I was very young and my mother was a homemaker. None helped us. Trust me, God will definitely show you the path and will give you the courage to handle.Take care.

I do hope that everything will be fine. I know that in the midst of our problems there will always be a solution. How we take that problem is entirely upon us. Some people will also blame God for their misfortune, and their sufferings, I do hope that you will find it in your heart to be strong.

Please always know that God will give you the strength to deal with these things. In 2004, I lost my Aunt on 11/2, two days before my Son's birthday and on 12/23, four days before my Aunt's birthday, I lost my son to cancer. I didn't know how I could go on but God gave me the strength to do so. I will keep you and your lost loved ones in my thought and prayers. Take care of yourself.
