A little while ago (probably around an hour and a half ago) I received a phone call from a friend I hadn't talked to for probably two months.
Here's a paraphrasing of how the phone call started (My friends name is Bill):
SP: Hello?
Bill: (said my name)?!?
SP: Who's this?
Bill: It's Bill...I bet you're surprised to hear from me?
SP Yea, it's been a while since I've talked to you...
Bill: Around two months or so?
SP Yup, that's probably about right...So what's up?
Bill: Well, I've got another surprise for you...
SP: Your mom died?
Bill: How did you know that?
SP: I don't know, I just had a feeling...
Now we continued to talk about his mother passing and I passed on my best wishes for him, his father, grandmother, and brother. We also talked about my mother, and some other things. Sometimes you almost don't know what to say when someones going through something like that.
The part that's strange is that I knew he was going to tell me his mother died. She was previously sick, but she didn't seem that sick, was at home, and I thought she looked alright. It's also been at least two months since I've talked to him, so I didn't know her health had declined so much. It's kind of odd how you could know something like that, I guess that's just life...
Edit: For those wondering his mother was only 59 years old.
