No words!
If there was ever any reason for me to start praying again, it would be for you to not have to go through this. You have my fullest empathy. What a brutal situation!

I know my love is meaningless for you right now. But you have it anyway. x

I just want to say we are here for you.

Do you have support IRL?

I am so very sorry. There are never any good words for this. I can't imagine the grief and fury and sadness you must be feeling. Sending love and echoing the offers of support.

I am so sorry. You have a lot of support here from us. Please let us know if we can do anything. It is hard to know how to help you over the internet, but if you need anything we will do it. I will jump in a car and drive to where you are to give you a hug if you need it.

As it stands, I am giving you an internet hug right now. I am so sorry.

MoPag. This must be devastating. Please reach out to us. I don't know if you want to share where you live (in general) and one or more of us could PM you and meet if you like.

Mopag, my heart breaks for you. I don't pretend to understand what you are going through, but I know it's hell. I've just been sitting here in a daze the past hour or so since reading your news. Today, I mourn with those who mourn and weep for those who weep.

You've been in my thoughts all day . . . I would literally give almost anything to spare you what you're going through. We are here as a sounding board, or shoulders to weep on or whatever . . . so sorry.

MoPag, you've been in my thoughts, all day, too.

This is just a horrible loss.

It's not the real thing, but instinct is kicking in, right now.

I wish I could bring you one of these.

How unthinkably heartbreaking - I ache for you. I am so, so sorry. I wish we were all in the same city, so we could shower you with love and strong shoulders to cry on. Please know you're in many hearts and prayers (I still pray; hope that is okay?). What can we do to help?

(((((( hugs and love )))))
