It's been a rough day

I found out late last night that a dear friend is suffering poor health and may not live long.  He's younger than I. I've known him since around 1996, so almost 20 years.  I am devastated.

Also today was the funeral of the baby sister of a friend I've known since 2 nd grade (off and on). She was 34 and mother of 4 girls,  all under 10. My heart aches for that family.  If I lost my baby sister (who is close to the same age) I would be inconsolable.

I've been crying off and on all night and day. 

I'm really afraid I might slip into a dark place emotionally.  I didn't expect the funeral to hit me so hard. All I can do is hope for the best.  And remember to take my happy pills.
