We were losing friends and family left and right starting 10 years ago. They were in their 40's and early 50's. All cancer or complications from cancer.
They all had teenage kids. So sad. Mary L was one. Many in our church groups had kids who were worrying. Since their friends suddenly lost their mom or dad.
Yes, Mary's death was a bit of a shock! A teen we know lost his mom a year ago and his dad recently. They were older parents but it was still a shock. The mom had cancer but i don't think anything was known wrong with the dad. The kid was immediately taken in by a neighbor that happens to be a social worker and all seems well at this point.
You never know what curve balls will be thrown you in life.
