Things happen. Good and bad.
Today, as I was having my breakfast with Leticia, she told me that she had seen a friend of hers that works as a maid at one of my aunts´ house. She told her that my aunt was very sad because one of her nieces had died.
Leticia thought that if the person was my aunt´s niece, it had to be one of my cousins. And sure enough, she was one of my favorite cousin´s half sisters.
I called immediatly my aunt and she told me all about it. It seemed that she had been ill for a long time. Fortunatly, she died in her sleep with no pain.
I will call Carlos (my fav cousin) later in the day. Even though they weren´t very close, still she was her sister.
I had not called him yet because Claudia lost the present I brought for him. I was hoping that she´d find it. Now I´m glad I didn´t.
I will go to San Fernando next week if I can to pamper him a bit.

Sad to lose a family member. My immediate family has been very fortunate. There have not been very many tragic deaths in my lifetime so far. Most of us get quite old and then pass away.

I didn´t know her very well. But still it was a pity.

She was older than me, maybe 75 or so. But she was always a sickly person.

I am very sorry to hear the loss of your cousin. Something happens without your knowing about it. I remember when I heard my loved uncle had left us for good, I had a very bad feeling and could not help weeping, even crying, back to then when I was in my teens. Even now I still miss my uncle a lot.

I didn´t know this cousin too much. But she was my favorite cousin´s half sister so I worry for him.
