Default Out of the Blue

The phone was ringing at 5AM this morning....you know those calls are never good. DH has a friend, early thirties (Jason), who looks up to him. They have a special bond going back a few years now.

It was Jason on the phone. His Mother and Father, both in their fifties have been on a health kick recently and they both joined a health club to stay in shape. His father went last night for the first time, and while working out, apparently he had an anyurism in the brain and it popped....causing him to also have a heart attack. The doctors hands were tied because the anyurism was bleeding out, and the meds to make the blood thin could not be used to help his heart. They were in a catch 22.

They had to pull the plug because he was brain dead...he died

Please pray for our friend Jason and his grieving mother whom he was with all night. He is moving in today to begin to care for her, along with his little daughter whom he is a single parent too.

Just feeling very shocked and sad for this young friend of ours....it is so sad! Breaks my heart to because this young man moved in with another dear friend 4 years ago when THAT friend's son died in a motorcycle accident. Jason took the 'place' of the dead son in every way, and now his own father is gone. Its just tragidy after tragidy.....very sad....He is a blessing to many in this world, a good 'son'.....
