Yesterday I found out a friend that had been battling lymphoma and winning, took a turn for the worse... I emailed his partner, who is also a friend, and he responded this morning telling me they had brought him home on hospice care on Sat. and that he wasn't sure how much longer he'd be around... thinking about a week.
While I was waiting for more news, I received happy news. My brother txted me the ultrasound of their baby and had me guess what the sex was... and I guessed right! They're having a girl! Another beautiful little girl. I'm so excited. Though I was wrong when I guessed a boy. :)
Right after that happy message, I received the message that broke my heart. He passed away this morning sometime after my email chat with his partner/my friend...
My heart bleeds for them...
He was so very loved and he will be strongly missed... <3
Rest well my friend.
