7. I'm so sorry, redwitch

How terribly sad. I extend to you my deepest sympathy.

8. I'm so sorry to hear this - for your friend AND for you.

Is he able to write about it? Either longhand or typing if he has a typewriter? Just a thought, because we're all gonna face that, and we can learn much from him. Is there some way you could help with that - assuming you're emotionally able. This is tough stuff.

You can always come here and commiserate. There are so many DUers who are able, and willing, to keep a vigil with you, or maybe share what difficult transitions they witnessed from relatives or friends of their own.

It's the last big trip, I guess. He's lucky to have you close by.

12. No.

They just brought him out of a medically induced coma. He’s in ICU and is being moved to hospice today if possible. The only people able to be with him are his wife and daughter. I probably won’t be able to see him and I don’t want to take away their remaining time with him. All of us who care are just sending him love and light.

10. I'm sorry

It's hard to watch a friend suffer and die. I hope you're surrounded by other friends to support you. I'm glad to know you can always get support here

11. So sorry redwitch! Strength to you both!

Not with that illness, but at my sis and I recent get together thought of our friend we lost in 2009 in her early 50s.
So difficult.

You can always come here to express yourself if you can/want to.

13. He's gone.

RIP Richie.
