The 13 year old daughter of a friend passed away last night unexpectedly in her sleep, she had been very ill for a long time, a form of cancer I believe but I never asked the details. I never met my friend's daughter yet it was obvious how much she meant to her. I can't begin to imagine the horror she went through when her daughter wouldn't wake up.
It's actually hit me pretty hard considering it's someone I never knew who died, the thought of a friend going through that unimaginable pain of losing their child is quite upsetting for me, I even shed a few tears as I read the message. I guess since my break up last year I've not been anywhere near as strong as I once was and I'm still a lot more vulnerable than I thought. But this isn't about me, the funeral and "funshine" in her honour is Friday, I'll miss the funeral due to work but will definitely go along after to pay my respects.
