Whoa...

Aloha, Rose! And happy holidays to everyone here! It has been a tremendously busy and stressful two months here. But now that the holidays are over and my pockets are empty :), it is time for me to re-group and get life reorganized.

I am writing on behalf of a friend who has been going through a tremendously sad and strange holiday season. His initial's are SKJL and birthdate is 04/17/84. It all first started with the death of his nephew MKISL 04/06/06 on Novemeber 27th. He seemed to take the death of such a young child with grace and acceptance. The day of his nephew's funeral, he also attended the funeral of a close friend's mother who he was very close to. That evening, his own father(LKL 05/17/1948) passed away all of a sudden, most likely from the stress of losing the grandson. He had a heart attack.

Another of his close friends lost a beloved family pet that was run over by a car around this time and SKJL just found out this same friend's grandmother passed away yesterday. And then(as if all this wasn't already enough!), he also found out a best friend has an illness that can be life-threatening.

We work together and there has been other deaths among us...my son's very close friend lost his battle to multiple sclerosis at the end of Novemeber and another co-worker's friend was killed in a car accident last week.

He is just wondering what is up with all the death's? We have been joking that God must be pretty bored and needed our loved one's to cheer him up. Why is he surrounded by it this season? I told him it's definitely something that his higher power wants him to examine in his life. He's been trying to keep it together by working ALOT. But I think even he is starting to see things getting to be a bit too much. What is going on? He would like to know why? I want to help him find comfort.

Thank you, Rose! I know this was kind of long winded...

Love and light-
Kat
