[QUOTE="Mattsmom277, post: 379417, member: 4264"] I'm so sorry. For you having to struggle to hear this from your friend. For the woman that lost her life and her loved ones. For D and for his family. Its just a tragedy all around. I can understand D's parents just closing off the outside world, especially those with ties to their own community. The judgement and so on must be unbearable whilst they are in the midst of a horrific experience already. Have you thought of a thinking of you note? Maybe just sent through the mail with a simple "Thinking of you and your entire family. Wanting you to know you all are in my thoughts and prayers". No pressure or invitations to get in touch. No way they can take away a misconception that you are just hoping to get talking for insider information (as I'm sure they are dealing with all around them). Just a true expression of your warm thoughts for them and acknowledging in a round about way that you know they are loving parents who are facing something awful. [/QUOTE]
