My 17 year old sister Momo’s dad remarried about 8 years ago His wife, B, has 2 kids. The daughter is a junior (or sophomore) in college & the son is 22 & lives with his girlfriend. So Momo has had step siblings for quite a few years. Well today, Momo’s step brother didn’t wake up. They are doing an autopsy. This is the first close death Momo has ever had to deal with, and with it being a young person, and her step brother I’m sure it’s going to be very weird. I know when my friend Melissa died it really freaked me out. This was so sudden. I reminded Momo that I had been through something similar with Melissa and that I’m here for her if she wants to talk about it. I feel so badly for B. I can’t even imagine what it is like to lose a child.

So very sorry to hear this, Shannon. Good thoughts for you and yours.
How very sad, how does a 22 year old just not wake up? That is so scary!
wow, how sad! My thoughts are with you.
I’m so sorry to hear that about your sister’s step brother.
Deepest sympathies to your sister and her father’s family. I’m glad you can be there for your sister.
OMG that is so sad and I’m so sorry for you all.
I am *so* sorry! How terrible! Sending good thoughts your way. Also, I am *so* sorry that I never got to say this before Friday, but I’m *so* glad for you that your surgery is over with and that you’re doing OK. I thought about you on Friday and worried about you. Hope you’re relaxing and getting some good rest. The thought of surgery totally scares the crap out of me, and I don’t see how you stayed so calm and brave. What’s it like being put under? Were you scared? I’m just glad that you’re OK now.
My heart goes out to the family.
I am so sorry for the loss. My condolensces to all of you.
I lost my best friend in high school (she drowned in the bath getting ready for school after a seizure). Her mom… well, I don’t
even know how to describe her grief. My heart aches for your sister and for this huge loss in the family. I will
pray for all of them.
I’m very sorry for you and your sister. I will keep you and your sister in my thoughts/prayers.
