Have you ever received news that is bad for a loved one but good for you? How did you deal with that?

With tact, and caution. And then privately celebrated with bottle of wine and a slice of cake.

@LadyShagworthy 😂 absolutely my goal... pepsi and whiskey though 😳

I was relieved when they told me my mom had died
she suffered a lot

@butterflymind1 I haven't experienced that, yet, but I think I can understand a bit of your feeling... 🤗

Unless you caused the bad news to happen why worry about it?

@Mikemcneil Thank you... some relief exists in accepting that I'm not the cause.

Yes.

I wish it could have been different. But it is what it is.

@User41 True in my situation as well. Thank you.

No. When a loved one suffers, I feel their pain. 😔

@VeronicaPrincess Feeling their pain while seeing that the outcome will be more beneficial to them than they may ever understand is new to me.
