It doesn't take much of a hint to remind me to be thankful for my health. I just learned today that my friend, aged only 27, will go in at the end of the month to get her guts scraped out. Full hysterectomy for the cancer, and endometriosis cut out of the surroundings. No one, but particularly no person this young should yet be dealing with the idea of their own mortality, nor the physical trauma. She is only of the most positive people I have ever met, which will be to her advantage in healing. Could I be so full of comedy and laughter while dealing with it?
This news is on the heels of spending the early part of this week in Spokane, being the only family member at the hospital to take care of my grandmother who just got out of surgery. WTF!! Where is everyone?!? She is 89 and ALONE in the hospital 75 miles away from her home town. I don't want to grow old.
