My friend just OD'd

I hate to unload on the FA community regarding this matter, but tonight, I leaned absolutely horrific news regarding a good fox owner friend of mine. I spent time at my parent's house only to receive horrific hellish news from another friend on Facebook, the person in question....decided that amidst her silent suffering, unbeknownst to her friends int he fox community, that taking her own life was the best option. I don't pass judgment on her, nor do I bear any resentment as I cannot and do not attest to know the state of her mind, but, no one ever suspected of her having deep issues that needed resolving. That being said, I'm very badly shaken up, my body is in a state of utmost shock and my tears flowing like an out-of-control flood. If anything, I need to vent, I need a sounding board, and I don't know what to think right now, other than the fact I've lost a close friend, and it hurts, it hurts like hell. Will I be able to overcome this, yes, but it will take time, how much, I don't know, but it really makes one think on the frailties or mortality. I need to vent, and I thank you for taking the time to read my latest news.

that being said, it's terrible news...

My condolences go out to her family.
If you ever need someone to talk to, please let me know.
I've no doubt you'll be just fine, but should you ever need someone to help you along the way, or remind you of the wonderful person you are. I see many such individuals, I being just one of many to offer such a gift. Still, should you need me specifically, please do not be shy in contacting me. ^.^
I know you won't need luck, but I wish you the best of luck. Stay safe, and be well. I know despite the hard times such as this one, you will do well on your journey, and make your friend proud. ^^
