Earlier today I heard a siren and saw a fire truck pull up to my neighbor's house (behind me). I've known them since 1980, am friends with their son, who is a year older than me. Mrs. Z died almost exactly a year ago. I just found out today that Mr. Z died. Their daughter and her 11 year old son live with them (situation like mine), and the 11 year old found him in the bathroom. He ran and grabbed his friend's mom (his mom was at work), saying something's wrong with his Grandpa. She went over, ready to perform CPR, but he was long gone.
My dad said he had the dog outside last night and could hear Mr. Z coughing.
I just found out a few minutes ago when my Mom came in. I remember watching a little while, but never saw an EMT show up, just the fire truck, so figured it wasn't anything too bad.
I can see their house out my window. All the lights are out except for the living room. Tree's not lit like it usually is.

This is so sad...

So sad. I really feel for that little boy.
Most fire trucks have a crew of EMT's even have advanced life support equipment and skills.
Posting in 12 Days of C-D Christmas thread, thinking it was Chat, and proceeding to pour my heart out about something stupid.
*sigh*
At least Max's Mama was good enough to rescue me from myself. Thanks, MM.
