Just found out a friend's son was tragically taken from us yesterday. I won't put details here but it seems like it was a hit and run. I lost another friend a few years ago in similar circumstances.
Absolutely heartbroken 💔

Thanks @ArraDreaming @MissinTooth I just cannot comprehend it at present. He was only 19 with the world at his feet. Such a beautiful young man. It is too much for me tonight. Feeling absolutely heart broken for my friend.

Thank you so much @Dreamy My best friend was killed by a hit and run driver nearly 5 years ago. I still miss him everyday so do not know how my friend is going to get through this. We have not been close for years now but still catch up occasionally. We worked together then went to different schools after her son was born. He was the light in her life and such a beautiful boy.
