I just learned that an old boss of mine's wife died yesterday.
She was having a tumor behind one eye surgically removed.
They didn't expect any complications, but she never made it out
of the ICU....
I worked with him for over a year, and we became pretty good
friends during that time. They were the people who got me into
biking and taking care of my health. She was a doctor at the local hospital.
Dear God. They were like my example inspiration for modern couples.
They loved each other greatly, had figured out how to fight out their differences
without breaking that love, and had worked out a balance between their
professional lives and their personal lives. I have been looking for just
that kind of relationship, cause it was so RIGHT. I know he'll never read
this but "Steve, you have my deepest condolences. You two were supposed
to live out your lives together in happiness....I'm sorry."
That has got to be the WORST possible Valentine's Day event I can think of.
