oddest thing

I forgot one of my old high school friends works in the coroner's office. I posted something on FB about families and drama and she PM'd me - she said she sort of recognized my voice, but it didn't occur who it was until after she transferred me to the investigator. Was very sorry to realize it was me and that the victim was my cousin.

Semi-small town living at its finest :)

I am sorry to hear about your cousin. Although it's a terrible end, it's also one that was perhaps inevitable. I hope you don't beat yourself up for her choices and decisions, although I know that many of us take on guilt for things beyond our control. My sympathies.

Thanks. I'm trying not to - it was my first reaction, but I got past that. Many of the relatives said they had the same reaction. You keep going "what if we did this or that or..." But I think we all realize if we had done something different these last couple of weeks, all it would have done would be to have postponed it. Mostly I wish she could have gotten into that detox place, but I'm not sure it would have done anything but postpone it either :(
