a warrant officer's dad passed away, his dads funeral was yesterday. if that wasnt devastating enough, his mom had a heart failure at the funeral and died in the hospital. to make things worse, he's the only son and hes not married. what a curveball.
sometimes you just dont know what to say to comfort a person or make things better. no "look on the bright side of things", no "things will get better" will do. you can only sit down with him, nod in acknowledgement and share the sentiment that its ok to be sad cause that just sucks.
a friend said mortality is part of life.. is it? its more like the only great tragedy. count your blessings man.
