Shocking news

[wiseheart]

We've just learned that our lady dentist has died yesterday from a heart attack. It was completely, tragically unexpected. She was somewhat older than I but still worked full-time; Mum actually called the practice to get an appointment, and so is how we learned about it.

We are both devastated. She was not only a very good dentist, she was also a wonderful person who we'd known for decades. :((

Oh no that's terrible! It's frightening how it can happen so suddenly, and then to someone who (at least from an outsider's perspective) seemed healthy.

Indeed. We went to her practice a month or so ago, and she was so vibrant one thought she'd live a hundred years...

Oh man, that makes it even harsher. I'm so sorry for her loved ones, it must have come as a terrible shock to them.

Oh, I am so sorry. *hugs* to you and her family.

She left behind a husband, two daughters and two grandchildren. I imagine it has to be even more horrible for them.

How sad.

I'm so sorry. I seems to be a day for bad news as I heard someone from the chapel I occasionally attend died in the spring. He was a lovely man and only about 62.

Thank you. I'm sorry about your loss as well.

Oh no, I'm sorry.

Well, that's life, isn't it? It's just that it came so unexpected!
