Ok now this blog is very personal for me and i dont think i've really ever written a blog like this but i think that nows the right time purely with what has happened over this past week.
Well as some of you may know i have been away at an athletics camp this week just for fun but also to learn stuff and train and various other new skills that i will use in my training for a long long time! i dont think i have ever had such an amazing week in my life!! i have met some of the most amazing people that i have literally ever met in my life including my best friends who i have known all my life! i will never forget this week as i have taken so many memories away with me from that experience and i am truly grateful to whoever was involved :)
However in a roller coaster week there's always a down side and unfortunetly once i had got home earlier today i received a few pieces of very sad news. firstly my little cousin who is just under the age of 1 year old has got meningitis :/ now when you have baby cousins you don't seem to see them as much as they are obviously in the care of their parents and this upsets me as as you may or may not know meningitis can kill :/ this scares me so much as i have never lost a relative in my life so i just don't know what i would do with myself!
Secondly i also was told earlier on today that a friend from my school has died in a bike accident! ='( now just before i left on Monday i did get news that he was in an accident and he had gone into hospital and he had had an operation later that night he had a heart attack and various other incidents occurred leading to his death :/ now i had know this guy since i was about 8 years old so it was super tough to accept at first and it still is now! but there's nothing i can do or could have done to stop it in any way!
Now if you really have taken the time to appreciate it and i would like to thank a certain someone on this site for giving a bit of advice on dealing with all of this! you know who you are and i really do appreciate it! <33
I can totally sympathise with you, I was in a very similar situation myself a few months back, It's so hard but in time it does get easier.
Just remember all the amazing things about you're friend, he'll live on through you and you're friends in memorys and in your heart.
Thinkin of your cousin, there's nothing worse than a baby being ill, and I also know exactly what it's like to have family member so young taken away so early! But I'm sure that the hospitals will do all they can for him <3
Keep smiling ryan and if you need anyone to talk to at all then you can always come to me!
Oh gosh, i'm so sorry for you. Try and remember the good times you shared with your friend, celebrate their life hun <3 I've never lost a friend but I have family members and it always hurts. You just have to soldier on. Chin up!
one of my best friends had menengitis some time last year, an i know how stressful it can be. like, i would always be at his house, just trying to cope with his parents (wen we werent at the hospital :S) the doctors told us that he had a 15% chance of living. at that point i cursed out the doctors, and told him that they would have to drag me out of the fucking hospital if they let him die. an he made it through. I know that ur baby cousin can make it through this, and i know you can to.
meningitis is awful but more people survive than dont. and 2 years ago a boy from mini bibs school died in a car accident so i know what youre going through, but to quote a cliché, time is a great healer!!
best wishes to your cousin
