Loss


Yesterday evening Heather called. She wanted to know how Tanya and Elizabeth were doing. That seemed a tad odd. Then she asked when had I talked to them last. Obviously not yesterday. So Heather got to tell me about the head on collision that killed Tanya's husband yesterday morning. Heather didn't have any details. So Mom and I went over to Tanya's house and got a few details. Jason had been driving up to some trails that he rides quads on. He came around a corner as someone was coming from the other direction. The other guy cut the corner or took it wide...anyway he crossed the line and hit Jason head on.

I am pretty much over the OMG aspect. I know that Tanya has a long road ahead of her with lots of decisions to make. I know she can be all right, if she lets herself. I find myself making lists for her, but I keep them in my head. She has to go down that road and find her way. I know she is a lot stronger than she feels right now, but then I have been telling her that for awhile. And maybe there was a reason for that.
