Liberty of the Seas - a life lost

[italianfemmy]

Hi guys. This is just so sad. A few days ago, a man passed away on a Carnival ship from jumping/falling or being pushed ... we don't really know yet.

 

And today, a woman fell to her death on Liberty of the Seas.

Our thoughts and prayers go out to this woman and her family as well as any passengers who might have been affected by this.

 

It's a sad 17 days for the cruise industry as a whole.

Your thread is much better. The other one turned into a war zone. :eek:

Can you post a link to the other thread? I know someone who knows the person who fell. Such a tragedy.

thanks

I think it got the axe.

[italianfemmy]

Well if the other thread did get the axe and this is the only one that remains, maybe we can do our best to keep it clean and just focus on how sad this is and keep the family in our thoughts.

Not only does the other thread no longer exist, but this thread treats the people and families involved with a lot more respect and sensitivity.

I was reading the other thread at work earlier and just getting mad.

 

This was a real tragedy for everyone involved. Apparently just an accident and very sad.

Oh, how horrible! We are going on that ship in 8 days.

:( Just found out she's from the next town over from me. Very sad. :(

Oh how sad..We just got off the Liberty.

I just found out about this when my daughter arrived at LAX today after being on this ship for a company related function. She said some of the other ladies from the company were in the club when it happened and they said she slipped and fell possibly down to the floors below. Article is saying fell down the stairs..Im just soooo saddened by this.. You plan on an amazing trip and then something like this ends your life and changes your family forever.

:(

Are there any details? Not an elderly lady so what happened?

 

Sorry, didn't see the other thread.

 

And yes, my heart goes out to the family

Sounds like what happened to Natasha Richardson...

[BunkerVA]

This thread is FAR more respectful than the last. I feel terrible for all of these families. I can't even imagine planning a great vacation and then having your life changed like this forever.

 

You just never know. :(

Wow. What a sad moment.

To think that one step could cause such a tragedy is really scary.

God Bless the woman, her family & friends.

[Rancher Dave]

Sad to hear of the trip and fall especially since it led to a death. Prayers to the families of both victims of accidents this weekend.

[The Big Booper]

I broke my ankle last July and even though I can walk almost normally finally, when going up and down stairs I hold on to the bannister with a death grip. This terrible incident just validates my trepidation.

I posted on CCL site, but here is another article from our local news, so sad, she was only 47 years young.:(

Sorry, let's try this again,

I just read about this - are you telling me that there were people who were saying inappropriate things about this woman's death? That's just NOT right. It sounds like she slipped and fell - hitting her head. It's just a terrible tragedy. My heart goes out to her family.

Yes, there was a thread where people said some very insensitive things. Others pointed it out and then others defended the insensitive remarks.

 

Fortunately the entire thread has since been deleted so that no one has to read how insensitive some people are.

[kahliasmom]

Wow. This is so sad. My thoughts and prayers are with her family. My parents were on the Liberty two weeks ago. I don't understand how a thread about such a sad incident like this can turn into a war. It is just sad thst something line this could happen.

[bubbadog]

best wishes to the family,so sorry

What a sad ending to what should have been a great time for this poor family. I leave on this ship in 8 days too but, we have a person from our roll call boarding today. I was worrid it was someone getting on today than saw it happend on the last cruise.
