That poor family

I have just read about a family, Mum, Dad and two children (don't know ages) travelling home from where they have lived for 15 years. On the flight the Mother went to sleep and died in her seat without waking up. Those poor children, bad enough, in fact could not be worse, for her husband. But those children must be traumatised. After 8 hours with her still in her seat, they landed at Frankfurt. She (her body) had to remain in Germany and the family had to continue the flight home.

I just can't begin to imagine how that poor man is going to cope with that..

And thinking of family and friends. First time home since before Covid. How awful.
