My friend died. He has been my friend since middle school. I loved him I always thought he'd be in my life. I knew he was sick but somehow on emails it just didn't seem so serious. I thought he'd get better I thought we'd hang out dance have fun again. But he died and its so awful I can barely breath. I want to scream and cry and by doing these things I want him to come back and not still be dead. But its pointless no matter what I do he'll be dead. I will never see him again no one will share those memories we shared for all those years with me again. Ill never get those quirky emails again. He'll never meet my kids he'll never see my face and Ill never see his again. Its just so sad. I feel like there is a big hole in my heart. Its raw and ugly and shameful and just so sad.
I have no friends to have a drink with to toast his memory with to tell the old stories to. Everyone is far away and I feel so alone. I don't know what to do and in reality none of it matters because nothing is going to change anyway. It is what it is. Death is final and I just want to go to sleep and wake up and have it all be better but none of that will happen will it.

Sorry. Hugs.
I am so sorry. Death is such a hard thing. I had a good friend die a couple years back and it sent me through so many cycles of grief and pain. The best thing to do is not hold back your feelings for a little while and THEN try to feel normal again. There will always be a little emptiness inside, but it gets easier to deal with as every year passes. Much love!
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I am so, so sorry. You all are in my thoughts and prayers.
I'm so sorry Suzie. I'll pray for you.
I'm so very sorry.
oh i am sooo sorry, suzie. this must be so painful for you.
(((hugs!)))
so very sorry to hear about the loss of your friend. (((HUGS)))
You won't get him back, but it WILL be better than what you feel right now. But right now hurts, and I'm really sorry.
When you're ready, you can tell us the stories, if you want to. I'd love to hear them.
A hug from me too.
I, too, am sorry for your loss.
I'll make a toast tonight, to all our friends everywhere who have touched our hearts and souls...and I'll think of you and your dear friend as I raise my glass.
I know it hurts.
hugs.
I'm very sorry. That is so sad.
I'll be thinking of you.

Oh, Suzie...I'm so sorry. Everything you said makes sense, and I know it hurts. The screaming and crying will make you feel better, at first, if that's what you want to do.
Take care of yourself. We're all here for you!
Oh sweetie. (((hugs)))
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
It turns your world upside down, doesn't it? Big hug.
how horrible for you. sorry. i dont know what to say to ease your pain. hope you ok. take care x
So sorry for your loss. I have an idea of what you're going through, my childhood friend from 3rd grade on passed away a year and a half ago. I felt there was no one to walk down memory lane with me. I wished I had said so much. I did find sharing stories with his Mom not only helped her but me as well. I also jotted down little memories for a small scrapbook for his kids, so they can have a special little memory book of when he was a kid. I will be praying for your comfort and big hugs!
I'm so sorry, Suzie.
So sorry dear Suzie.I send thoughts of love to you so that you don't feel quite so alone in this difficult time of grieving. I cannot begin to imagine how sad you must be feeling.
I'm so sorry! There is just nothing to say that can make this better...
Biggest of hugs for you.
So sorry to learn about your friend's passing away. Sending you well wishes. Hope you start feeling better soon..
Hey Suzie I am sorry for your loss. Thankfully you can have those memories for ever. It might help you if you take some photo's you have of you and he and write down the memories in a scrap book way or better yet a personal art journal, you can write down everything you feel and dont edit yourself while your doing it.
I now follow you.

I never know what to say to anyone when they lose someone close to them. Maybe this is why I now volunteer with a hospice??
Death is very surreal, isn't it? It sound like he had a tremendous impact in your life, so hold on to those close thoughts.
He will always have a place in your heart, regardless of the hole that is now there.
i'm so sorry, suzie. ((hugs))
I am so sorry for your loss. Maybe you can find a great way to honor his memory even though everyone else is far away.
We are so, so sorry. Truly sorry.

Suz, So sorry to hear this. My thoughts are with you.

I came to visit today and read this post, as well as your printer post.
... ' you won't break me ~ I am stronger than that'
As devastated as you are over your friend's death .... I believe the statement you made about the dastardly printer is who you are.
Grieve now, remember him always, celebrate his life in meaningful ways.
There's nothing to do and that's the absolutely worst part. The last year has had several people in my life leave this world and they each hit me time and again. I'm so sorry, sweetie. :(
My condolences. Write a post about all the good times. You have an angel on your shoulder now.
Oh, Suzie, I am so sorry for your loss.
I can't believe I wasn't there for you! Argh...I am so very sorry Suzie. Was completely embroiled with dad's visit and only just caught up with your blog.
Will try and call.

I'm sure you have great memories and that will help you cope with his loss. I am very sorry.
I realize how late I am, but I just haven't had any time the past two weeks with the end of school in sight. So busy. I know. No excuse. I want to tell you how sorry I am about your friend. Feel free to share your memories here, though. We always have an ear to listen.
