"So sorry, Kilia" doesn't seem to say nearly enough, but I (and all here, I'm sure) truly mean it. I wish you peace and contentment as time passes.

Oh dear Kilia, that is very sad news. I am at a loss because there has been tragedy all around me ths past week. Last weekend my nursery business partner lost her 29 year old son. He drowned in Finger Lake in a boating accident.  It has been a sad week all around.


It is so awkward trying to find words to communicate in these situations beyond "I care about you." and "You are not alone. We'll get through it together."

Bubbles of Earth!" "

Killa, don't know exactly when you visit the interwebs, but I am on the West Coast, and up very late most nights (2 or 3am not unusual).  Look for me, and lean on me, online.
