A Terrible Loss

Mary, that's awful. what a tragedy! if you need to talk or anything... i know you don't know me... i'm sorry for the loss of your friend. Michelle

Thanks Cleo and Michelle. I know this is going to sound strange but I almost feel like I am partially responsible....like I could have done more to help him prevent this. I had brought it up at my support group meeting that he wasn't walking enough after surgery. They said we should all go over there and make him walk....but we didn't. He wasn't a member of my support group but they are pretty supportive of anyone. This just seems like such a waste.

I understand how you feel, but you've got to understand that people will basically do what they want no matter what you tell them. You are not responsible for anything. There's probably nothing you could have done to change the situation. Take care and keep your head up! I think it's safe to say that we are all here for you!
