   So sorry that you've had such a tough weekend (((turquoisesea))). I can really feel your pain and sadness through your words. However, I think it's wonderful and very courageous of you to go to the hospital to visit your dear friend even though it affected you so deeply - I'm sure she appreciated your presence even if she wasn't completely aware. Now, it's time for you to care for yourself - you need comfort and consolation - do whatever it takes to give yourself what you truly need - warm bath, good food, rest, and sleep. You are a fragile being and should treat yourself as such - be kind to and gentle with yourself. Please keep posting when you can and let us know how you are doing.
