A stranger who once saved me from making a mistake that could have cost me my life has passed away today.
they became a close friend and I knew they had gone to hospital, I hadn’t visited because I have this cold and I didn’t want to infect them, we were trying to arrange a catch up of some kind but everything kept falling down.
the last message I got said they miss me.
and now they have gone and I don’t know how I feel about it, I think I have just gone numb.

Hi there @Beleth ,
I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I can see how a wave of numbness can linger as you grapple with the loss of a loved one.
I hope you find a way to allow yourself to feel and to grieve, and to be able to find ways to celebrate your loved one for who they are.
You have an entire community here to support you.

@Beleth grief and losing someone who matters is always difficult. Find your path respectfully for yourself and them. Your good intentions not to pass on the cold also matters.
condolences
