33 and a Third

OK. That’s enough. I’ve had enough bad news. I’m trying to deal with my own ups and downs due to medication, but I keep getting bad news…

First the whole US attack… well that’s not first, really. What was really first was my friend Jim’s illness. He’s been suffering with cancer for a while. He had a second surgery on a tumour in his brain yesterday. Can’t stop thinking about these two things. But found out today that our good friend Andrew’s dad died yesterday. He had been ill for a while, and it wasn’t unexpected, but it’s still very sad. This is really too much.

I’m still trying to hold on to the one wonderful thing that happened in the middle of all this… Jeff and Gail had a healthy baby girl. Have to keep thinking of that.
