Unable
One of my fellow classmates is not doing too well.
He's a wonderfully smart guy - high grades in all of his classes, pretty sure he was eligble for Dean's List next semester. He attends three of my classes, as well as having previously been my bowling partner back in January/February. Really quiet in large groups, really talkative in a bunch of two or three.
He already wasn't able to return to school. Like I explained a few entries ago, because of our state pulling out all private school funding, many students are not able to come back. He is one of those students. He was doing really well and his grades were high, but the amount of money he was losing would be almost impossible to regain.
So yeah, he was already a little down these last few weeks of school.
Then he vanished from classes for the last couple days.
Nobody knew where he went.
Until today, when he emailed all his professors.
Apprently his mother died on Wednesday morning, quite suddenly. She has been put on a ventilator for some small breathing problems earlier in the week, and then she just... died.
My classmate is completely, emotionally wrecked right now. He has given up on finishing school, even though we only have two weeks left, and he says he never wants to come back.
If you could, please, keep him in your thoughts and prayers today.
