I mean, not that it makes people happy any other time of year, but during the holiday season? Come on, God, can we have a month-long reprieve or something?
My cousin's partner, Theron, died suddenly today. It was totally unexpected, and I feel so horrible for Joe. He's in the middle of Kansas, all his family is in St. Louis or beyond, and it's 10 days until Christmas.
Makes me so sad.
Joe was my late aunt's son, the one who made me feel so welcome when we travelled out to St. L for my uncle's funeral when I was a kid. He took me to Six Flags, doted on me, was just so kind. I hit it off with him instantly, and was so happy when he found love.
And now he's alone. And it's the holidays. And my heart hurts for him. He's lost so many close to him in the last few years.
What do I say to him at a time like this? I haven't seen him since my aunt passed away a couple of years ago. UGH. Wish I could do something.
