And now there is a fourth. Another on my team had his grandmother placed in hospice this weekend after a battle with cancer. He and his family are there with her now as her time remaining with them is almost over.
On a more positive note, the teammate who's child was close to death after a serious automobile accident has taken a turn for the better. The swelling in her brain has started to go down, and today she was taken off the coma inducing medications.
Until next time...

We are at that age. It's not pretty, but it's reality.

Glad to hear she's doing better.

That's really rough. I'm glad for the child and her family. Do they know yet if she has any brain damage? It's probably too early to tell.
That's a lot of stress for a lot of people, including those like you who work with them and care about them.

they do seem to come in batches, don't they.
No fun in any of it; I hope these people have others/support.
