wow - sad day

First we lose Farrah Fawcett, and now Michael Jackson.  

yep it is sad!

Crazy. I want to know what happened to Michael.

As though it weren't bad enough,  My sister just called me and my cousin got home from work to find his 18 yr old son drowned in his pond.  Stop the world... I am done with all this.

It seems we just buried Jason and now Cody.  Gee whiz!

I just pray my boss Dale comes to very soon.  I can't stand much more sadness.

Huge hugs, and love you all!

Praying for each of you and hoping you are all safe.

Tracy,

I am so sorry for Cody's death. Your poor family has been through alot lately. I hope this sreak ends with Cody. I also pray that Dale wakes up soon. Right now, it may just be his body's way of protecting the mind while it tries to heal itself. Keep to your positive outlook on life. Things will turn itself around soon for you and those who you are close to!

I'm with Melissa. I'd like to know what really killed Michael. 50 isn't that old as far as heart attacks. Physically, he wasn't overweight and I really doubt that he smoked. I'm thinking that there must have been some kind of drug interaction.

It is sad about Farrah but at least she isn't suffering anymore. I think she did a wonderful thing by trying to make the american public more aware of all that cancer patients go through.

For both of these talented people, I do feel so much for their family. It's easy to forget that Michael had a very loving family...including children...who love him very much.

I'm so sorry about more sad news in your family, Tracy.  My prayers are with you and Dale too.  Take things one day at a time.  Call me if you want to talk or need anything.

Big hugs to you,

Farrah was very brave and courageous and Ryan loves her so much.  That is evident. 

Shocked to hear about Michael too.  Only 50 yrs. old and cardiac arrest.  He had a previous problems with taking too many pain killers.  Don't know it that played a role in all this or not, but we'll know before long.

I heard on TV that yes, he was a very successful and talented man.  But then they said, how do you define success?  You can have a tremendous amount of talent, and be a billionaire, but was he truly a happy man?  I don't believe he was.  He never had a childhood and tried to recapture that as he got older.  

I'm sorry to hear of your loss Tracy. You and your family are in my prayers.

Poor Farrah. It sounds like she walked down a painful road. I hope she has some peace and comfort now.

I grieve about the death of Michael. It's an odd ambivalent feeling. I really believe he probably did molest those children. He's made some awful mistakes. How much was contributed by the treatment of his family though? We'll never know, probably. He seems to have been a tormented man. I feel for his family and children. I think though, that I'm just also upset that a piece of my growing up is gone. Being from Hammond, next door neighbor to Gary, the Jacksons were like signs that  the local kids could make it big. I remember watching the Jackson 5 cartoon as a child, buying Michael Jackson records, purses and posters. Now I feel like I'm getting old!
