dekonstrukt,
Very sad to hear. I know what that's like. My only Sister died 9 years ago this month on the 28th. It was a car wreck, I know she didn't have her seat belt on because I know she never wore it.
Things like that give you a much different, new, and not always great perspective on life. I constantly walk away from people I care about with the realization that I might never see them again. Some people think that's unhealthy. However, I think it's a good thing, because you put alot of value on the time you have with people in your life.
My thoughts are with your friend's family. I don't know them, where they live, how they live, and so on, but there's a part of my life that knows exactly what they are feeling, and it's the worst feeling in the world. Pure depths of emotion and constant questioning of why things like that happen. It's horrible. I don't really know how else to say it.
It's weird, the only peace of mind you get is when you fall asleep (after something like that has happened) yet falling asleep is an impossibility.
I remember waking up so many times and it's like you've totally forgotten it. And then it just comes over you like this wave of lead weighing you down, and you're back to reality.
So, very sorry to hear about what happened. Hope anything I've said helps in some way. :)
