As a parent, I cannot imagine anything worse than losing a child. I’m so sorry about your friend’s daughter. I’m sure he’s going to need a lot of support to get through this, I hope he has a good network.

I'm sorry to hear that.
My 22 year old niece shot herself in 2016. It destroyed my family and I (as pathetic and terrible as this is) used it as a reason to drink myself stupid for God knows how long.
She was very drunk when she did that.

Oh, January, I am so sorry for both tragedies. The loss of a child is truly unbearable, an agony like no other.
I pray that your friend has a strong network; he will need that network for a long, long time. What I found I needed, more than anything else, was someone to listen, just listen.
Many prayers for your friend.

Hi January,
I guess there are no words that can help in these times. However, hang in there and you'll find some support in here.
Remember that time heals everything. Look for a sense of hope. Thinks will get better.
Big big hug.
