Oh, man I'm so sorry to hear that. What a horrible event, I'm so sorry. Just does not make any sense, does it. I really live by the rule, (particularly because many of the things I do are dangerous, including being around my stock), "when it's my time, it's my time, I just hope I'm doing something I love." Sounds like your friend was doing what she loved no matter how tragic it turned out.

Its tough to find a silver lining in this story, but your friend is now safe.

God bless you. And may the new year bring new hope, power, ambition, and courage. . .
