A friend of mine passed away less than 2 months ago, and now her son has messed up big time (no sympathy, he really screwed up in a stupid unnecessary way) and is going to jail, I'd say for a long time. His boys lost their beloved Nan and now their Dad in less than 2 months and I'm pissed off about it. Also, the oldest of the boys is friends with my boy but I don't know the mum, so they probably won't see each other anymore. The kids are nice kids, but their little world has changed so much in such a short time, and I really feel for them.
