The other woman who was battling breast cancer in my town lost her courageous battle last night. A week and a half after the other young woman in my town lost her battle. They were friends with each other. I think they were both diagnosed around the same time back in 2009, and they both passed on so close in time to each other. Unbelievable.
I had heard an update last weekend that she had perked up and had some energy and wanted her phone to talk to people and wanted visitors. I was happy that she was feeling better, then feared that it was her "final rally". UGH. I guess a couple days ago she became non-responsive.
She has two little children who are the same ages as my two younger sons. I cannot imagine what her daughters and husband are going through right now. So heartbreaking. My husband was very sick and almost died a few years ago, and it was so scary but he made it.
4 months ago, she was so vibrant and full of energy still. Then right after Thanksgiving, things took a turn for the worse. UGH. It happened so fast.
Why are these young mothers made to endure these horrible illnesses and have their last days on Earth be so miserable and full of pain and why are they taken from their families so early? Why did these two young children lose their mother at such a young age? It is horrible and unfair. Yes, yes I know that life is unfair. But still.
It makes all the stupid petty crap that goes on in life so meaningless and insignificant.
I recently became friends again with someone I considered a really close friend. I was sad to lose the friendship when it ended a few months ago. I'm happy we are friends again, and in each other's lives again....life is too short to lose friendships over the little things. :)
So I thank God for that blessing. :)
I'm still waiting to hear the details for the memorial service. I am happy that she is now resting in peace, and is no longer in pain.
This whole thing just sucks so bad. SO. DAMN. SAD. :(
