Life takes many twists and turns.
A childhood friend of mine, Amy Merrill's, father passed away yesterday. I have known her and her family since my first day of kindergarten. My mom still sees her mom on regular basis. He would have been 55 years old tomorrow.
The worst part is that it all happened within a few weeks. He was diagnosed with a nocardia infection. He basically picked up a bacteria infection from the soil - http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000679.htm . It spread from his lungs to his brain so fast and there was no way to prevent it.
It's so hard to think about what the future holds. This is actually the 3rd parent of a childhood friend who has passed away in the last year.
Prayers and thoughts to all those families.
