Another update

[The People]

One of the up sides to this, well probably the only one, is that we have reconnected with some of the family. We share the sadness of watching the minutes tick by. One older sister in particular.

My younger sister's cancer is one that just rolled in and was a big mess in no time. Had they found it earlier there was still nothing they could do. It has a name but I forget what it is. But it is like being sucked in by an undertow before you even realize you fell off the dock.

I went in to tell my cousin the other day. Coincidentally her sister's husband has lung cancer too. But his took a different form. It hasn't spread and they removed the tumours, taking most of the bad lung.
