View THEFATCHICK's food & exercise for this day

Good morning. Sometimes life sends a harsh reminder to us of how fragile life is. Yesterday was a sad day, I went to a viewing for a friend's Mom who had a stroke last week and passed Saturday. Having lost my own Mom this year, my heart aches for him. As I walked out of the funeral home my youngest daughter called to inform me the son of a family friend had over dosed yesterday morning, his father finding him, trying to save him and calling 911. I could not bear to think of myself in this situation, as a parent I know I would be devastated and heart broken.

I just pray that today is a softer day for both families, they feel the love and support of their families and friends, and find the strength needed to get through the coming days. :heart2::heart2:
