Chiefs fans lost a kindred spirit Saturday

I doubt there will be. He had a lot of friends, but really lived on humble means. His son will likely go with his aunt and uncle.

My best friend had something very similar happen to him when he was 18. He was young and in great shape, so he survived. From the sound of it, it wouldn't have taken too much liver damage, or anything else really, for him to not be able to fight it. But, yes, I don't think he remembered much from those days. While he still drank, it was never really ever to excess. He got his son when he 3 or 4 years old, so that really straightened him up.

Prayers sent for you Luv and the family and especially the boy. Glad you shared this you don't have to be alone with your feelings.

Sad to hear. Prayers for you and your friend's family.

On a related note, I just found out Saturday that an old friend and the original drummer of my old band died. He was only 37. Complications from the flu and his severe diabetes. He left behind a 10 year old son.

It was a really eerie day Saturday. I saw your post on Facebook, I believe Flopnuts posted something about his aunt, and there was a local news videographer (sp?). Just a lot of death on Facebook that afternoon.

It's still kind of hitting me this morning. I went to his Facebook page and have been reading through comments people have been leaving. I really shouldn't do that at work, so I'm going to wait until I get home and read some more. We are not old enough to know this many people our age dying.

Sorry for your loss. That totally sucks.

Certainly am sorry to hear of your loss.
