Thanks for the wins and kind thoughts, but I gotta share it with [user]Dege84[/user], [user]Jaranja[/user] and [user]Slaanax[/user]. There may be more who had this kind of a wake up (this thread is huge), but those are the ones I know for sure had the same thing happen:Eggsnham said:That's so terrible that you win this thread... And I meant that in the most serious manner possible.
Dege84 said:Some people just don't have what it takes, eh? Simmilar thing happened to me, the author was sort of a friend of mine: Hey...your girlfriend has drowned. I'm sorry.
Jaranja said:Something similar.
"Wake up Chris, your Dad's dead."
Slaanax said:That's probably the worst way I was waken up also. Replace your name with mine.

"Michelle, Lauren, Grannies just died.. come and pay your respects"
We were sleeping in the next room. You should never have to see a dead body at 4am in the morning...
Unfortunately I'm not kidding, she had died. But in my father's defense, he had been camped out in my mother's hospital room for weeks and had her brought home for the end. He'd been up all night with her playing her favorite music really loud for her. Kinda sweet actually but also that was his way. He was one of those insane early risers who felt anyone who didn't get up at 4AM was a lazy scoundrel and deserved no courtesy or kindness.Tdc2182 said:You are kidding me right? Was your mom actually dead or did he just want you up.
