Cycles
I found out that a close family friend died yesterday. Cancer + liver failure. She was only in her 50's, a college friend of my mom.
I'm so sick of people being taken from me. I know that might sound selfish, but I don't care. Since 2001 I have yet to go a year without having a relative or family friend die...and they have not all been elderly either. (At least 10 people in my extended family under the age of 35 have lost a parent sometime in the past few years, myself included). Cancer, car accident, Parkinson's......
At least I know that she was not in pain. Honestly, I can say that until I turn blue but it does not make it any easier. She deserved more time.
Writing about this was supposed to be therapeutic. It's just getting me more upset.
