e-mail from my mother

subject: phone call


Mon, Apr 6, 2009 at 3:15 AM I think I missed your call today …. Hope everything is OK, I miss you & worry about you.   One of Mandy’s brothers was killed in an auto accident Friday (April 3). Two brothers were in an SUV & hydro-planed when they got off the interstate. The vehicle hit the barrier & flipped throwing both of them out. Mandy’s other brother is in ICU at Saline Memorial. He is expected to recover but has alot of damage. Her youngest brother, Brandon was killed. He was 19 and has a 2 yr old daughter & another baby on the way. We were enroute to the funeral home for the viewing at the time your call showed on my phone - by the phone didn’t ring …   Otherwise, things here are just as you would expect on April 5!   I love you.   Mom



I know this officially makes me a horrible person, but apathy can be mildly humorous. Granted, more so baffling.
