a wake up call
This week the world has lost a few of it's souls a bit earlier than expected,one of my HS friends went to the hospital for back pain-what he thought was a pulled muscle and later that day was dead from pancreatitis. Another friend had been battling liver disease and finally succumbed- on her 49th birthday.
One of Lonnie's work friends very nearly went as well, he passed out, facedown in the parking lot from what turned out to be a pulmonary embolism, passing out saved him - if he'd made it into work- the clot would have almost certainly moved to his heart and killed him.
It's all reminded me how fleeting and precious life is.
So RIP Andy and Pam.
And to all my friends, past present and future, whether we speak everyday or once a year. Whether we are bosom friends or just play silly games together- I am so grateful that you are in my life. You mean the world to me.
Go and tell someone what they mean to you right now- you never know when that chance will be taken away.
