This past weekend had been a rough one for me. I learned around midnight on Saturday that my very best childhood and longtime friend lost her 21 year old daughter on Saturday morning in a tragic car accident. The heartache this has caused has affected so many people. The family is based near Mackinaw (about 20 miles south) in Michigan and the accident happened there. My friend and DH now live in Chicago due to his job. She called me from the road and I could only listen to her sobs and heartache.

Through Facebook we have been together all weekend. She seems to be better though what is better, my heart is broken for myself and for her family.

The one thing that I have been able to do for solace is come to DK to read and check on friends and their lives to make me smile.

The other thing that has happened is my Daisy has not left my side. She has come and put her little head on my lap so many times and looked up at me with those big brown eyes as if she knows. She and my husband have been my comfort along with all of you.

Thank you so much for this wonderful place everyone.

I cannot imagine anything worse than losing one of my children. I pray that your friend and all who loved her daughter are comforted. Glad Daisy adores you so much and can be a comfort for you.

Oh Lisa, how tragic.  I am so sorry for you and your friend.  It's a blessing that Daisy is there with you....I'm sure that Doodle head on your lap helps at least a little.

I am so sorry for you and your friends loss Lisa.  What a horrible thing to happen to someone just starting their whole life.  You are all in my prayers, and what a great comfort to have Daisy so concerned.  They truly are our best friends through life.

Lisa, This is just the worst thing that could ever happen to parents. Makes me sick and sad all at the same time. Hearing this always puts so much in perspective. I am sorry for your friends and for you and your family. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you!

[Nicky, Riley & Boris]

I am so very sorry about this terrible accident.  There aren't really words that can convey the sadness of a young life which has ended far too early.  I am so glad you have Daisy and your friends here and hope that you can visit your friend and spend time with her and her family.  My thoughts and prayers are winging their way to all of you.

Lisa, I am so sorry for you, your friend and her family. There are no words that can really ease the pain, only time will do that. Just want you to know that we are thinking of you and sending you a big doodle hug.

Lisa -

There is nothing that can be said to ease the pain although time will lessen the hurt.  Our prayers and condolences to your friend and her family and to you.
