John McCain, War Hero, Senator, Presidential Contender, Dies at 81

Of course they shouldn’t, but it happens. My aunt buried her infant daughter and was never the same again. She was in her twenties at the time, and within about 25 years was dead of drug and alcohol abuse. I saw first hand what I can do to someone.

God rest you John McCain. You were a good man.

Undoubtedly it is the hardest thing they have to do. Losing a child is the worst, especially when they are young.

As I just posted, the death of her baby daughter ruined by aunt’s life. It had a profound effect on my mom too (they were sisters).

Rest in peace, Mr. McCain.

RIP Senator McCain. A good man and patriot.
Our country could use more like him.

That one was hard to read.

Which one?

Meghan McCain’s. There are some heartfelt and eloquent tributes coming in from around the world, but hers hit me right in the feels.

Oh yeah. Me too.

Cindy’s was another hard one.

The last tweet sent on Sen. McCain’s account. A measure of the man.

He was diagnosed last July (BBC) lasted 13 months, about average. My brother was diagnosed with the same tumor last month. :cry:

Prayers for your brother, Tilly_jow. :pray:

I wish peace for him and his family. That one disease above all else I would love to see eradicated from this earth. It has taken away so many, and a lot during the prime of their life.
