I'm so so sorry for your lost. This gave me chills and tears just reading it. Your daughter's reaction is as normal as can be expected right now. Big hugs and prayers to your family!

I am very sorry for the loss of your dear friend. However, because he had D doesn't necessarily mean that was the reason for his accident.

I also have to say I'm surprised you would tell your 5 year old this, considering you don't know for sure and even if you did, what is the purpose of telling such a young child something like this?
