Purrs for Hoomins' Tragedy
Don't often share my heartaches with cat ng cyberfriends, but multiple purrs
needed for a couple friends in Miami, my hometown. Early a.m. today, a call woke me from a close pal; her DH's only child, a daughter, 21, went to RB today 3 days after driving headon into a large concrete pole late at night during one of the intricate turns in poorly lighted section of our I-95 Interchange (locally nicknamed "the spaghetti bowl" so you can imagine what I mean by "hairpin turns" here). Her BF died at the scene; neither wore seatbelts, and her car was a rebuilt Mercury with airbags not reinstalled upon renovation. I had occasion to ride as passenger with her dad, my friend, about 2 months ago, and at the time bitched at him to fasten his belt; he speeds and we were stopped by a local cop, scolded, but no ticket given as he mentioned we had our seatbelts on (!). What irony.This is my same friend who has the 3 Himmies in her *no pets* condo; she and DH have now adopted his daughter's half-grown kitten; the Himmies are having cows over the kid's intrusion, but at least one of them is playing with it already. Thank you for your recovery and comfort purrs for my friends; I met Claudia (his girl) once. -- If there's no cats in heaven, I don't wanna go! |

Purrrs, meatloaf meditations and candles lit for your friend, his
daughter and boyfriend and her cat. Such a sad situation all around. Purrs for you as well, Hopitus as these are your friends and I'm sure you share in their grief.
