Hug your beloved

[trillionaire]

Got off the phone today with my 3-yr college roomate and good friend. Her fiance passed suddenly and unexpectedly. She is, of course, devestated. She is fresh out of med school, and was living with his parents while she started residency and he attempted to relocate to the area. She had just found her perfect dress 2 or 3 days ago, and we shared the photos and giggled about being lovely brides. They had just spent a long weekend together in Santa Barbara and in wine country. Today, he was found in his bed, no longer with us. They had been together for 7.5 yrs. We used to double date... I can't even begin to imagine what she is going through.

To the brides out there, remember what is important. Stop stressing about your weddings.

Every day, and every moment are precious, and not promised.

Hug your loved ones.


xoxo,

Trill

Oh my heart really hurts for your friend.

Sending lots of positive vibes to you and your friend. This is going to be such a tough time for her but she will get through it with lots of love and support from those around her.

Your right too, it is so easy to get caught up in colour schemes and flowers etc and forget about what''s really important..

[NewEnglandLady]

My heart goes out to you, Trill, and especially your friend. I am just so, so sorry.

 

[rhbgirl24]

Oh that just gave me chills. I can''t even comprehend what she is going through and my heart completely goes out to her..........

You''re right - the people are what is important, not every little detail of flowers, dress, music........ we all just tend to get caught up. I just want my fiance, to marry him, doesn''t matter to me if its a paperbag or a designer dress.

 

[trillionaire]

Thanks for the prayers and support.

I''m doing okay, just trying to figure out how to afford to get to LA ASAP. I''ve been sharing old memories with friends and looking through photo albums. We had a very tight knit community in undergrad, and this guy was an RA, so he knew tons of people and impacted so many. My former roomie isn''t picking up her phone right now, so I imagine that she is quite overwhelmed. I''m trying to get in touch with her sister to see how she''s doing.

We did so many things together... trips to New Orleans, Catalina Island, Orlando, Vegas... and I remember 5 years ago when he said that we would probably be at each other''s weddings. It is all just so shocking and incomprehensible. She was my friend''s first and only boyfriend, love, fiance... her everything. She must be utterly shattered, and I am just sad that I am not there to comfort her

I''m still waiting for someone to say that there has been a big huge mistake, and that everything is fine.

 

[Still_Waiting]

How absolutely tragic! I''m so sorry. Give your friend big, big hugs from all of us at PS. And thank you for the reminder of what''s truly important.

 

[mayachel]

oh trillionaire, I am so sorry for you and your friend''s loss. She is lucky to have you working so hard to get to her side. I''m sure it will mean a lot to her.

 

[Octavia]

This is so sad

. My thoughts are with you and especially with your friend. I hope that you''re able to go there and be with her, even though she''s not up for talking; it can be a real comfort to have an old friend around. Is her family nearby?

Something like this is one of my worst fears...FI was just on an extended sailing trip and I couldn''t talk to him for several days, and I didn''t sleep well until I heard his voice again. I can''t wait for him to be home so I can hold him. This is such a reminder of how precious time together can be.

 

[Jen_91909]

Oh my, that is so horrible. My heart aches for your friend.

You know, I''ve been stressing so much about the weather for my wedding day, this helps me to realize the only thing that really matters is that I''m lucky enough to be marrying the man I love. Talk about perspective.

 

[dsgirl81]

i''m so sorry to hear that. that''s terrible!

 

[diamondseeker2006]

Wow, that is devastating...that poor girl!

Have they found out what happened to him yet?

 

[Luckyeshe]

I''m so sorry to hear this, trill! Hugs, prayers, and support to your friend and his family.
