Tragedy 2 doors down from me

#1 Postby CajunMama » Sat Feb 28, 2009 11:06 pm

This afternoon I was gone about 25 minutes, took my dog to the vet. When I rounded the corner onto my street, which is a 17 home cul-de-sac, the street was filled with emergency vehicles at the second house on the street. There was a firetruck, ambulance, another ambulance company vehicle, 3-4 cop cars and a couple of other cars which i found out later were undercover cops. My daughters best friend lives directly across the street form the house and found out from a cop friend of hers that the 15 year old son was found unresponsive by his older sister who called 911. Unfortunately this did not turn out good for the family for the coroner was there later on. I heard there were pills involved but i'm not 100% sure on that so i can't say that he overdosed or not. The police were combing the front yard looking for something.

I can't imagine having to bury a child. I'll be saying many prayers for the family tonight.

It sure is. :( A parent's worst nightmare... I can't imagine what they're going through right now. My prayers are with them.
