Sad spot.. Friend loss.. Hard life

[baller4life2468]

Well.. earlier today.. maybe around noon my time.. I was struck with the news that a school friend of mine has passed at 14 due to a fatal boat accident at Lake Havasu yesterday.

Full story

A 14-year-old girl has died, the result of a collision between a boat and a personal watercraft Saturday.

San Bernardino County Sheriff?s officials confirmed the girl died at 1:30 a.m. Sunday at Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas, from injuries resulting from the crash.

Sherrie Moore, who described herself as the victim?s grandmother, said in an email to Today?s News-Herald the victim was Tiffany Breslin, of Murrieta, Calif.

It?s the third death on the Colorado River and Lake Havasu during the July Fourth holiday weekend.

Breslin died in the same accident on the river near the Needles Bridge that claimed the life of a 19-year-old woman Saturday. She was pronounced dead at the scene. Her identity has not yet been released.

Cause of the accident remains under investigation.

I just feel the need to post this on here because I know that the people here are mature enough and will help me through.
I need to let it out somewhere.
I am spiralling down and have been all day.
I am somewhat in a state of depression.
Honestly.. No one should die at 14.

I just need an outlet.

I dont even know how to explain how i feel right now.
Its just hard to think that one day.. a friend of yours is there.. then.. they are gone.
I just dont know what to say. I just need to let something out.

Im glad that I can let this out here.. because I know no one will make fun of me.

Feel free to say what you want.. but remember.. some of us have lost someone important to them.

Sorry if i am being redundant.

Thank you CLRs.

It is hard to loose those you care about, and trust me it never gets any easier. All I can say is that time heals all. It's perfectly normal to feel down and depressed when something like this occurs. Just try to remember the fun and good time's that you two had together. That may help a little bit, but it will sting for awhile.

Again, time heals all.

I hate to say it, but I feel your pain. I was 8 years old and my friend died. You right, this is why my friends actually think I'm kind of gay, because I always want to get along and I let my friends know I care about them. One day they could be here, another they could be lost forever.

I'm sorry for your lose Baller, just remember, as long as people are always in other peoples hearts, people never die.

Baller, I am so sorry to hear about your friend. My daughter also lost a friend this weekend. Too young.........

[Trooper110]

Horrible when things happen to young people, or anyone at all, but it really is just terrible when this stuff occurs

[LIMEY]

it is so sad when someone so young passes, my thoughts and prayers are with you and her family in this time.

[lady-MGS]

I'm sorry to hear baller.

You know we are here for you, don't hesitate.

Sorry to hear that Baller.. When someone passes away so young it is always a tragedy, it's against nature and it creates a huge impact to our emotions. It is very sad, but time will help, I know the feeling because I've been through this as well. With time, you will learn how to keep this in your memory without causing you the sorrow you feel now.

And BA, I am sorry for your daughter as well. I know we are never ready to lose someone but when you are young it is even harder, for it is the first time we experience these feelings, let alone when it is a young one that passes. It's so unfair, I can't stop thinking about those parents, to survive your child is the worst that can happen to a human being.

That sucks, baller and BA. I lost friends at that age as well. My high school biology teacher spent a class period reminiscing about all the funny things a guy would do when he was still with us, with tears rolling down his face the whole time. By the time he was done, every girl in the class was bawling and all of the guys were obviously fighting back tears. But we all felt better afterwards. It helps to get together with others and let it all out.

Those feelings will pass. Time heals.

I am sorry to hear that as well Baller. A very good friend of mine passed away a couple of months ago but as everyone has said time does help. Looking back still hurts a little but not like before. My advice is to spend as much time with friends and family as possible, especially friends who where friends with her. Think back on all the good times and forget the bad and let it all out. Dont hold back tears, they just show that you really care and no one will think any less of you. Lastly dont just sit back and let it drag you down to nothing, she wouldnt want you to stop living because of this, just remember her and continue living for her. God bless you and her family, as well as BA's family and his daughter.

she was way too young to die... I feel for ya baller.

I lost my cousin at age 14. We were both riding our bikes and he got his by a bus. He was in critical condition, hooked up and all that but never made it through.

You don't know what you are feeling and really, you never know. Its a huge mix of confusion, anger, fear, sadness, regret...all mixed into one. And at 14, it makes it that much harder to understand.

I lost my best friend at 18, he got his by a car running accross a street. My grandmother died a year later, then my other 2 grandparents a year after that. In 2003, I lost my mom to a car accident and just last week, lost a dear family friend.

Through all the deaths, the feelings I felt were always different, yet strangely the same. Can't explain it.

You will have to live through it, as everyone else does.

Just make sure you take note for your own life and learn a lesson that life really is short and you need to make the most out of it. Helping others, being cheerful and happy, lending an ear or an hand...do something good with yourself in your life, do something constructive. Because she will never have the chance.

Feel free to chat / PM with me anytime

I'm sorry to hear this baller. I know it's hard and makes you question a lot of things. The only thing I can say is if you have good memories of them cherish them.
Never lose sight of the fact this is a part of life and there is no one that can say some magic words to make it better. I have been thru this and losing all of my grand parents and my father. It doesn't get better, but I can tell for a fact, at least a fact in my mind.
You don't have to forget them, remember and talk to them sometimes. If the relationship was a strong bond there is nothing wrong with believing they are watching over you.
When my Pa passed I thought the world would come to an end. I'm not going to get into details on what happened to make me believe he is watching over me, I'll just say I know for a fact in my heart that he is.
Just take comfort knowing all our prayers are with you and what you are feeling is normal, how you deal with it is the important thing. Don't let it take you down and keep you there. Remember the times you had, lock them away in a safe place of your mind so you don't ever forget, accept it and carry on with life. It's all you can do.
Hang in there!

Your Friend

I've come close to losing a few people close to me a few times, but never actually ....... I don't know how I'd cope with it, but god bless

[JohnyRico]

Sometimes it's just a rough life, my man. I lost a good friend right before graduation and since all the seating stuff was done already I had to sit through the ceremony with an empty chair beside me where my friend Rocky should have been. Not much you can say to make it any better except remember her for the friend she was and keep her in your heart. One of these days it won't be the first thing you think of in the morning and you just keep healing from there. God bless.
