sad

a girl I graduated HS with married a guy the grade below us so I knew them both. They have a 2 1/5 yr old and a 6 week old...and he just died in a car accident. I knew them but we werent in the same crowd and didnt really ever talk. I now know her through myspace and facebook type stuff and though I dont know her well my heart is so beyond broken for her and her babies I cant stop thinking about it. She is 24 and a widower...it makes my insides hurt to know that she is going through this. I think bc I am expecting it makes it hit so close to home that it terrifies me to my very core. I wont even say the obvious things that scare me bc I dont even want my mind to go there. She has these two little baby girls who will never truly know their daddy...I lost my mom at age 7 and I dont remember her so to know that they will really never remember him is so sickening..I wish there was something I could do..something anyone could do. The 2.5 yr old is one of the most beautiful kids ive ever seen. I wish I had money to donate to her education fund for them..ugh I wish I could do something other than vent uselessly on here. Im so painfully sad for her.

Even not knowing her too well, you can send condolences in a card or something.  If you live nearby, take a dish of food over...it's one less thing she has to worry about, and you don't have to be in the "inner circle" to know they have needs to continue their lives for the next while until she can pick it up herself as her pain eases with time.
