Zahir says stuff.
I use big words. I R TEH SMRT.
Ending.
Natalie died at 12:45pm today (Monday). It was peaceful, and without pain. My mother and I were there until the last, keeping her company and telling her over and over that we and many other people love her, and always will. I'm not sure she could hear us, as she never regained consciousness after surgery on Thursday night, but I'd like to think that she could, and that she knew we were there.

Thank you all for the kind thoughts and prayers.

Oh ... oh dear. It seems like this all came up pretty suddenly, but well, at least you did get a chance to be there for her and to say "goodbye" ... I hope you're able to get through it, and that you've got a lot of people arond to help you and your family.

Hang in there, okay?

I can't say that I hope you feel better after time, because I know that losing someone that close to you can never heal.

All I can say is that everything happens for a reason.
Whether you have religious beliefs or not, everything does happen for a legitimate reason.

The best thing you can do at this point in time is take some time off from your daily life and be with your family for emotional support.
I know you're our local badass, but even badasses need a time to let out their grief.

I'm rambling on and on, so I'll leave you with this.

Death is not the end of love, for she is and will forever be giving you guidance from above as you travel the path of life.

(It wasn't very good, but I guess that's why I'm not a inspirational speaker. ;__; )

Oh my God, dude. I'm so sorry for your loss.

It's good that she left peacefully and that you were there with her, though.

Oh man... I'm so sorry to hear that. If there is anything I can do to easy the pain, just tell me.

That's so awful.

But at the very least it's good that she wasn't in any pain.

My thoughts are with you and your family.

The loss of any family member is particularly hard, but especially a direct member like a sister. -hug-

I'll pray for you and your family, and of course your sister. I'm sorry.

[for the record, my heart literally suck when I read this, because death really isn't something that's comfortable in dealing with. I really hope things get better soon.]

That is so harsh, I'm sorry man <3

Best wishes for you and your family.

Im sure she knew how you and your family
felt, and at least she wasn't in any pain.

Her story in this world finished it's chapter, and a new one is being written in heaven.

I'm so sorry. I wish there was more I could say.
Be thankful you could at least say goodbye, some aren't that lucky when a family member dies.

Again, I'm sorry. heart

Although you probably have many other people, I am here to talk if you really need it badly.
Sometimes strangers are the best kind of people to talk to.


Especially if they have candy. wink

I don't know you at all, I just report in GD, but I wanted to express my condolences for your loss. No one should have to go through that, so early on.

Another day another death we can't stop for everyone but it is always good to remember the good.

I may not know you well,
or the pain of losing someone like that,
but I am deeply sorry for your loss.
I wish you and your family well.
you have my condolences.


commentCommented on: Sat Oct 14, 2006 @ 01:02pm
I'm so sorry to hear that.

I lost my Grandfather a few months ago, I know it's not the same but I understand it's always hard losing someone close to you.

Even harder when they're young.

Hope you feel better soon.

You and your whole family has my condolences.

I'm sorry for your loss, Zahir.

Even if all we are to you is people spamming up your forums, I hope you know that we are here for you. (well, most of us, anyways)

Good luck with everything.

Wishing you the best,
Emi

Words can not express my sympathy Z. The loss of a loved one, especially a close family member is something that all of us dread somewhere in our mind and hearts each and every day. I can only hope and pray that this tragedy will not be followed by others and that your sister rests in peace and without pain.

I'm sure she died knowing she had a wonderful caring brother and family. biggrin

Life seems so unfair sometimes... people can get taken away so quickly. One minute they're okay, next thing you know they're gone... and you've never even imagined "what if they die?"

If it's any consolation, I know how you might feel to a certain extent. A good family friend of mine (practically my brother) was killed instantly in the war over in Iraq. It was such a shock to me, and all I could think was "one minute he's there... the next he's not" and it upset me. Now I try to live just like he were here- what would I do to please him or make him happy? What would he want? And it gives me a sense of satisfaction... I'm more at peace with the fact that he died than I was when I first heard the news... So if you're feeling down, try it out. I know it sounds kind of dumb, but it really helps to ease the mind.

If you ever just need to talk or something I check my PM box like 8 times a day and I'm usually always on AIM.

Although death isn't usually regarded as an uplifting situation, I hope the best comes of this for you and the rest of your family anyway; like stronger familial bonds (although by your descriptions they seemed quite strong as is) and new outlooks on things. I'm sure she must have, at least, felt the warm feelings towards her before she went. It's good to hear it was more of a soft fall than a long and arduous one for her. I feel terrible not having read this sooner, and realise this comment is delayed by over a week, but nonetheless!

I'll be sure to say a few prayers for you tonight (although admittedly I'm pretty terrible at them; it's not a regular thing for me) and hope that they actually do something. Take care!

I've been there.

My sister died of pneumonia while I was at school.

I know this is an extremely late post, but I happened to stumble into your profile and journal.
First of all, there really aren't any words to express the sadness that I feel for the death of your sister. I know what it's like, to lose a sibling. A few years back, my brother died as well. The pain is still there, and I figure that it will always be there, as long as I live. It's somewhat hard for me to find words to say, but be aware that Natalie is in my thoughts and several other people's thoughts.
