She was such a lovely woman, she would (when appropriate) talk about her kids with such warmth and care. I went to see her for my anxiety disorder, deriving from a rough childhood.

It is NSFL.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>A family member of mine probably wins the unfortunate prize of having the most tragic loss.<\/p>\n<p>She had married her high school sweetheart, both became successful and had their dream home built. They started a beautiful family and were a picturesque, fantastic couple and parents. They were *constantly* positive and happy. These were extremely bubbly, energetic, outgoing people who were in love with their new life.<\/p>\n<p>One day, the dad was in the backyard on the ride-on mower taking care of their huge yard with lots of trees. Their 2 year old boy saw dad in the backyard, zooming around, and he ran out the sliding glass door to go and see him. He was running up from behind and, because the mower is so loud, his dad never heard or saw him. He had to reverse out of a spot and&#8230;. he reversed right over his own son. Lawnmower over child. I won&#8217;t go into any more details. <\/p>\n<p>It was so bad that the first responders who showed up were at the funeral, faces wet from tears. The wails of pure anguish I heard from the mother that day will live inside of me forever. My eyes are welling up just thinking about the utter misery of it all. Even the priest was crying over the too-tiny coffin. It was the single saddest situation I have been on the periphery of, and I cannot possibly begin to imagine experiencing it first hand. It was so tragic that their home town still honors the child during a parade they have every year. <\/p>\n<p>On a positive note, the couple healed. They remained loving each other, and they had another child &#8211; a beautiful and healthy daughter whom they love dearly. The pain has never faded, and they remember their son all year long, but they have learned, somehow, how to heal and continue to live.<\/p>\n<p>If we have souls, I have no idea how one heals from something like that. I think about it more than I&#8217;d like to. <\/p>\n<p class=\"post-bottom-meta-links clearfix \"> <span class=\"sources\"> <a class=\"open-list-submission-source\" href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/AskReddit\/comments\/1v2gff3\/whats_the_most_tragic_way_someone_you_know_has\/oyv8mek\/\" target=\"_blank\"> SamIamGreenEggsNoHam <\/a> <span class=\"open-list-submission-source-separator\">, <\/span> <a class=\"open-list-submission-source\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pexels.com\/photo\/pensive-man-in-outdoor-setting-reflecting-33412561\/\" target=\"_blank\"> T.

My dad had brain cancer, which really s***s on its own. By the end he had become mute and unable to walk, confused a lot. They had him on experimental d***s for the tumors and Im very grateful for them because he was given six months at diagnosis and we got two years. However, the last one he was on has some really nasty side effects. He had what I consider to be the worst thing that could happen to a man. The d***s caused him to get gangrene in his genitals. Unfortunately it was the last thing his body could handle and it\u2019s what lead to his last hospital visit. He was a really great man. So compassionate and funny and always had people swarming around him to hear one of his jokes or just be in his light. It was devastating to see him go like that. I remember sitting in the hall of his room, waiting for the rest of our family. He was asleep and I was just bawling because I knew it was the end. Nurse came to tell me everything woukd be okay and I told her no it wouldn\u2019t. She didn\u2019t argue, didn\u2019t comfort me. Just patted me on the back and let me cry because she knew she couldn\u2019t convince me otherwise. It\u2019s devastating when someone so big and kind in life gets such a excruciating and demeaning exit.

It ended up winning a prize at a small local festival, and then it got accepted into the Havana Film Festival, which was the biggest thing that ever happened to him by far. As a guy who always told us he was going to be a filmmaker, it was his dream come true. People at the show were so happy for him they bought him a suit and new shoes for the trip. I gave him a new Palm Pilot to help with his networking. On the plane down he was handing out business cards and the crew let him screen his film for the whole flight.<\/p>\n<p>His first night in Havana he went out with some strangers he\u2019d just met, and people warned him they seemed sketchy but he trusted everyone. They found him on the street the next morning robbed of everything, even his new shoes, with no memory of what happened. He died in the hospital six days later before the film could be screened at the festival. Nobody ever figured out exactly what happened.
