Sad News From Home

I received some sad news from my dearest friend of 30 years Melissa that her mom had passed away this week. She had been sick for some time so this news is shocking but sad nonetheless.

Melissa and I have been friends since we were kids so I have known and have been close to her and her family for a long time. She told me her mom passed without pain and discomfort.

What frustrates me now is that I cannot afford to fly back to Massachusetts to be with my friend during her time of sorrow.
