When will it end?

A lot has happened this month.

1) My mother had a surgery to remove her whole thyroid gland (turned out that the nodules in her neck were malignant, but the surgeon removed the affected tissues). We'll know more next week when the tissues have been analyzed.
2) A friend's brother-in-law has leukemia. He has 2 kids, oldest is in kindergarten.
3) A family friend, who had a stroke a few years ago, had a hard time breathing earlier in the week. Turns out that she needs a heart by-pass surgery, but she doesn't want it.
4) Found out today that a cyclist who was killed early yesterday morning was the husband of my sis-in-law's coworker. I worked at the same company a few years ago. The funeral is next week.

What else will happen?

I feel bad for them. Actually, guilty. They are all good people, certainly better than me. It's just not right.

(((SS))) I'm sorry to hear about all what's going on. It affects you more than many ppl because you are a caring person, imo. Don't look for anything bad to happen.. look for good. Guilt is not a good thing. It's ok to be thankful that you aren't having such a tough time as they are right now. It's ok. Feeling guilty won't help anyone. Above all else, with all this going on, take care of yourself... don't overwhelm yourself because of the guilt, regardless...

Ditto what Sky said!! Couldn't have said it better myself.
