Another loss...

My dear friend Christen, lost her dad yesterday. He has been living with her.
She found him, in her home, in his bed....he passed away, completely unexpected.

I wish I could take her pain away. He was her best friend. The night before he had told her how proud he was of her, how content he was in life and how much he loved her.... There are alot of blessing we have talked about that surround his death. But right now she is so mad, alone, sad......just so upset. I just wish I could take all of her pain away.

But, I know how it feels. I am going to be beside her or in touch with her everyday until she starts to feel better....Help her with cleaning his room, she is moving out of the condo, funeral arrangements... I HATE that she is having to deal with this- it just doesnt seem right. But knowing he is in Heaven, a better place, the place we all live to be...does seem right.

So if you all can keep us in your prayers. This is a tough time....such an array of emotion.

And to add to all this, another dear friend just lost her grandfather, HUGE prayers for her.

Love you~Melissa
