How fragile are our lives

I just learned that a dear friend is seriously ill with cancer. I am stunned and reminded again that our lives are so fragile no matter how well we take care of ourselves. A sad day.

I've been very ill myself in the past so I know what it is to be scared. But at least when it is oneself one feels that things can be done to alleviate the problem. When it's a friend, one feels so completely helpless.

My heart goes out to Marda.
