What is the most tragic thing you've ever had to deal with

[TheDoubleA]

When I was 20 years old, I had a very brief fling with a girl who was good very good friends with one of my buddies from school. This happened over Christmas break. She had told me that alot of things were going on in her life, and that she didnt want a boyfriend, so I just left it at a fling.

When we got back to school, my buddy told me that both her parents were very sick, and that she dropped out of school to work and help her parents take care of her little brother. He was 14 and she was 20.

As it turns out, her mom had brain cancer and her dad had prostate cancer. 2 months after Christman break, her mom died. 3 months later, her dad died.

To this day it is one of the more tragic things that I have known anyone personaly ro go through.
