Best Friend just called...Update
and said that her Mom is brain dead. She went in the hospital yesterday for dizziness and headaches(she has been sick w/ diabetes and heart problems and we almost lost her last year). Turns out she has blood on the brain- ALOT. There is nothing they can do. I have been BFF w/ my friend for over 20 years- her Mom was my Mom. My BF calls and tells me what the Docs said and then says" I need you here - can you come here and stay till this is over- I need you" Hysterically crying- this sets me off- I call our other friend who is in NY and she is rushing up there to the hospital. I live in FLA- and feel like I am trapped- the friggin flights to leave tomorrow are almost $300 one way!!!Stupid airlines- I am sooo upset - I just needed to talk. I am also trying to stay "Normal" around my son. Not cry in front of him and keep his day going as normal as possible between the phone calls and looking for flights and crying. Thanks for listening girls.
6:53pm update... Well, I got a phone call that her Mom passed away. They took her off the machines and about an hour and 1/2 later she was gone. I finally found a flight. I am going out Tuesday night - to be there for the services starting Wed.
I did ask about berevment(sp?) flights- No ONe has any!! I went on priceline and tried every airline known to man. I found a flight on Jetblue round trip- I also had a voucher so it will be under $300 w/ that. These airlines don't give ya a break!
Thank you so much girls for all your prayers and support. It meant so much to log back on and see how much luv there is here. It is appreciated more than you know!

Re: Best Friend just called
Oh I am so sorry! It must be so hard living that far away during this time. I hope you can find a way to get to NY. My mom passed away from the same thing although the way it happened was different. It is a horrible thing and I am praying for your friend and her family.
