Sad news

Well, today was going very well until I heard from Mike that our friend Travis had gotten in an accident. What makes it worse is that the girl that hit him sped off after the accident. He had to go to the hospital because of whiplash and when he was released Mike took him home.

I called Travis once I heard this and found out first hand what happened. Everything that Mike had said was repeated, but I was also informed that not only does he have whiplash, he has some internal bleeding in his head, and the next 24 hours are important. This is not the type of information that you want to hear when you're talking about ANYONE. Travis is a trooper though and I know he'll pull through, he has to, and he’s going to run for president!

After this event had passed my day was going swell. At around 9:45PM my Grandfather received a phone call, after talking on the phone in the kitchen he moved to the one in his office. I asked him what was going on and he replied that my Dad's best friend passes away. After talking to people and finally reaching and talking to my Dad I found out all of what had happened.

I am terribly saddened by the events that took place and am praying for my Dad, and family, to cope with it. Your prayers for my family and their family would be appreciated.

Remember, you never know when someone you love will be gone forever. Make sure you tell them you love them and they know that you mean it! Life is a precious thing and you never know when it will be taken away.
