Yesterday morning, in Canada, my cousin Alyssa's boyfriend died of a brain aneurysm. He was 25.
I've known Alyssa since she was a tiny little thing. She is very tall now, so I am her "little big sister". We are 7 years apart, so when she reached the age where we could talk as equal adults, she was so honoured to tell me things, but still when I see her she wraps her long arms one and a half times round my waist.
Right now I am hurting for her so badly. After a string of awful boyfriends, she finally found the right one. They were friends for 6 years before even going out this year. She is 3 months pregnant, and they were talking about getting married someday. I cried my heart out for her last night. She is grieving, like a widow, my little Lala.
Before, I was going to Canada at Christmas to hug her and see her tummy. Now I just want to hold my little cousin close to my heart.

ohhhhhhhh that is terrible! i know she feels so awful...at least she can be with him through their child. *sigh* that is so sad. so very sad. I hope everyone is handling everything okay. :(
This breaks my heart. May God keep her and that little baby safe from harms way. I hope the pain lifts from her heart very soon and she is able to live thru the miracle that's inside of her.
That is so sad!!Sorry Olivia. I don't know what to say.
Oh, my god! What a f*****g tragedy!
Sometimes fate (or whatever) seems like such a sick joke. Why do things like this have to happen?
All my best to you and especially to your cousin.
Getting someone snatched away so suddenly is the worst thing to go through, it takes a long time to even accept it and longer to live with it. She'll be good though, family like you is what's needed - people who know her as opposed to those who just think they do, people who know when to leave her alone as well as when to be there.
awww, I feel so sad for her
That is truly tragic. And all the best to you Liv.

That is really dreadful news, and I'm so sorry to hear that. My thoughts go out to her.
I'm so sorry! It's sad when you find that special person and they're taken away from you.

Hey Liv, I know this is super-delayed but I was just browsing through your blog and came across this entry. There are a few corrections I'd like to make: he was 27, and it turned out to not be an annurisym, I never did hear back from the coroner to find out exactly what happened, actually. But the last I heard was that autopsy showed he had an enlarged heart, which could have meant he had high blood pressure which may have led to an arhythmia. (Sorry about the spelling, not quite sure how to spell that)
Anyways, thanks for even posting this, reading it today made me a lil sad, but my heart smiled to see you care so much!
Love you O-O,
La.
