My best friend died yesterday in a motorbike accident in the UK - aged 24.
We had just got back from the 'Dominican' (as he called it) last week. He was slightly apprehensive about going because it was his first time and a few people over here (who don't follow the news accurately) were telling him that the weather was really bad (the flooding) plus a few of the other misconceptions.
He got there..........he loved it............he wanted to stay...........we planned on going back in September. Now his 25 year old wife is left on her own.
We had an amazing holiday and loads and loads of laughs in our friendship. I don't entirely know why i am posting this, i suppose in a small way its helping me with the grief.
The DR cheered him and his wife up after having a few rough months here in the Uk prior to going. His wife will have all her memories of us having such a good time experiencing new things in a new country. I have been half a dozen times and talked about the DR so much that they eventually went. They are glad they did.
He will be dearly missed by the new friends he made over there and by all his family and his many friends he had over here. He literally was the life and soul of any occasion.
Life is too short, who knows might happen tomorrow?
