Later that evening, after her children had fallen asleep, Caran wrote: "I feel like a block of cement fell on me."

"Tomorrow I'll have family over," she added. "Tomorrow will be hard. I'll hear from the medical examiner."

Caran continued to tweet after her husband's death, at one point writing: "I know it's petty, but I went from 567 followers to over 1,300. #inshock."
