Death of friend

I'm so sorry to hear about the loss of your friend, Bazza.
It's very hard and also to see her suffering so much in the last few months of her life.

It's very hard and difficult to come to terms with; my closest friend died very suddenly, unexpectedly and far too young and I still miss her years later.

Bazza 💐

How terribly sad. It's awful when a life well lived ends in such a nightmarish way.

So sorry to hear about your friend Bazza.

I really feel your pain .
I've never got over the death of two of my friends.
One was severely asthmatic and was ignored for five days as she suffered bout after bout .
When she was finally taken to hospital-her lungs collapsed.
She was only eleven .

One had breast cancer and unknown to the hospital it had rapidly metastasised into her spine.
She spent the last six months of her life in a wheelchair and died horribly.
She was in her mid thirties.

All I can do is remember them fondly and hope that they are at peace .
I find that prayer helps.

I’m so sorry BlueBelle. I hope you can take some comfort from the fact that she didn’t linger. It’s awful for loved ones, but such a blessing for the one who has gone before not to have suffered.

I am so sorry Bazza it is very hard to lose close and dear friends

So, so, sorry, I lost a lifetime friend last year. I miss her every day. But you will in time forget the awful pain she was in towards the end and remember those good times when you were both so young. Do look at old photos of old days, I did this and it helped to erase the memory of her in a hospice.
She is still your close friend but just not in the same room.

I m so sorry Bazza
Yesterday I was given the news that my friend of 52 years (we met at the school gates) had fell and died almost instantly 3 hours after falling We had nt seen each other for some years as we live at opposite ends of the country but kept in contact online and still considered ourselves good friends I can’t express how shocked and upset I am

Thank you all for your kind wishes. It’s the first close friend I have lost. She was 78 on January 24th. We met as young marrieds at work in our early twenties, and our daughters have been and still remain best friends since birth. We had a lot of fun when our girls were small and I cling to that time.

Hi Bazza, I am so sorry for you and for the bad time your friend had.

I was thinking of a good friend I lost 10 years ago who was a childhood friend. There is no one else I can share many of those memories with - growing up, boyfriends, the youth club, our weddings, our babies. I still shed a tear, and you will, too, but you will have the memories you made together.

Sending my thoughts to you Bazza and to you crazyH. for both of you.

That is all so terribly sad, sending kindest thoughts to you

Really sorry for you and your friend Bazza. Life can be very cruel and sadly for some people it’s just one thing after another. I hope she is resting in peace now.

Feb 1st was first anniversary of my best friend’s death. We first became friends aged about 5, grew up together, played together, had boyfriends together, had our babies close together etc. she too had a dreadful last couple of years, so much surgery, chemo etc but nothing worked.

How very sad Bazza and painful for you to see 🌹

I’m so very sorry for your loss

All my sympathies. As they say, life isn't fair, and to have a protracted and painful death after a troubled life does seem the unkindest cut.

We have lost two friends recently, one to heart disease, the other to dementia, both 5 years our junior. Neither led lives that made them more likely to develop those problems than either of us and yet, we live on.

Just lost a good childhood friend and a very good person.😢 Funeral is tomorrow - sadly it’s thousands of miles away, but I will be watching the live stream on YouTube
So sorry Bazza, for the loss of your friend.

I am sorry to hear this. What a sad way for your friend to end her life.

My OH had delirium following surgery and never really recovered his sanity. It is very distressing for all concerned.

I’m so sorry you’ve lost your friend, Bazza, in particularly upsetting circumstances.

I’m so very sorry. May she rest in peace after so much suffering, poor lady.

What a terribly sad 'story' - my sincere condolences.

I lost my best friend a long time ago, pancreatic cancer aged 52. And since then almost all my best friends have gone, last one in December, after a long illness. It is so hard, especially to see them going through all the pain and indignities of long illnesses. I am so sorry.

Not being able to alleviate the suffering of others is a thing we find very difficult to live with.

Sometimes we feel we want to take the suffering on ourselves rather than stand by and do nothing.

Your friend is at peace now and her suffering over. Try to focus on that and not your own emotional suffering.

I think we are wise to have people around us who can help us through these things and I hope you do have people you can turn to.

Sorry for your loss, but take care of yourself too!

Oh how sad. Poor lady. Rheumatoid arthritis is a bad enough thing to suffer from without all the added complications she’s had. I’ve lost so many dear friends over the past couple of years and I still can’t believe sometimes that I’ll never speak to them again. x

Oh how awful.
It all sounds so unnecessary, as if each individual problem may possibly have been solved.

I'm sorry it wasn't meant to be.

Sad. I'm sorry x
