There was a house fire this morning on the news, where a car was speeding ran into the house set off a gas leak and the house exploded killing the elderly man inside, and the car driver. People tried to help the man inside but couldn't.
I decided to go by there because it was close by and on the way back from getting my hair done. I was shocked when I saw that it was a old friend of mines house. Very sad, the house was demolished and had burglar bars.
This was a very nice older man in his 80 and he couldn't get out. Iam sick about this. Sorry, I hope I dont bum anybody out.
I guess this belongs in the grief and loss section.

I'm so sorry Layla. There's really nothing you CAN do now. What a terrible tragedy. And what a horrible way to die. I'm so sorry that this happen hon. I'm sure this is upsetting to you, since it was a friend. The whole story is upsetting to everyone, and I don't even know him!

My thoughts and prayers are with you sweetie. Grieving is hard, and it takes time. God bless and take care of YOU. Hugs, Lee

Layla, I am so sorry for your loss. It is so hard to lose someone we care about and I wish that there were words I could say to comfort you. Unfortunately there isn't. It will take time. Cherish whatever memories you have of this man and they will help you.
