today a woman that i work with, dee,her daughter died from cancer. she was suffering from it for almost exactly a year. when she found out last year, they originally thought it was breast cancer. then they realized it was also in the liver. i am not even sure if they know which one it originated from.
about two months ago we went out for lunch with both dee and her daughter. she looked okay but when she tried to do simple things like put her food into a box to take home, the plate was too heavy for her to hold. she had sores all over.
i forgot to mention that she was only 34 years old.
i feel very numb. i feel for dee because i couldn't imagine losing a daughter, but i can't cry because i feel like she suffered enough, i feel like there is nothing better for her then being at peace.
a 17 year old girl also comes to my job and suffers from some kind of cancer. her mother said that she had to get surgery and probably won't get out of bed for the next two months. they are the sweetest family and i hope i dont want to be nosey and ask questions, so i just hope that didnt mean that the cancer came back or got worse.
at this moment in time i feel thankful for my life and for my health. lately when i go to bed i ask God for nothing but the happiness, safety and health for those that i care about. and this is unlike me, but by asking him for those few things, it keeps me aware of how thankful i should be and how thankful everyone else should be as well.
