This kid at my school died of cancer barely knew him but I'm very terribly sad?

Any time there's anything you want to share please feel free to do so -

What don't you like about other answers, mine or other people's, whichever ones you don't like. I can't speak for other people but we get people who ask questions only to argue (don't want to hear the truth, don't want anyone's opinion, just want to be validated) and after a while I specifically figure that everyone who comes on is here for the fight. I get short with people and so do other people who answer.

At any rate - any time you feel like sharing, fire away!

When I was in High School, we lost 2 people in my grade. One I knew fairly well and the other was just someone I attended a class with. Sadly, one was suicide but even sadder, the one I knew fairly well drowned in a bath tub. She had a seizure while taking a bath, hit her head, and that was it.

It was very tough to deal with this only weeks apart from each other. At such an early age, you never expect anyone to die and when it happens, it seems that your world is no longer as safe or even the same as you thought it was. I didn't realize it then but now, years later, that is what goes through my mind. Their deaths not only saddened me, but scared me a little as well...simply because people at such a young age are not supposed to be able to die. My world was different.

I think I understand some of what you are going through and I sympathize with you for having to face this. Stay strong, you will get through it.

Good luck to you.

I wish Dani would come back - a pleasure to answer someone who can express herself so well.

Hopefully she will -

Out of greenies but great advice and insight!

Well you have very thorough answers. I only disliked a few.
