1952-2004

I have seen alot of people die young in the 8 months, but it's still a shock when it happens.

This lady I knew had a rare form of cancer- usually exclusive to black men, and she was a white woman.
She was told she had 6 months to live- back in 1998.

Overnight she went from a hefty woman to skin and bones. She tried to say it was a purposeful weight loss, but my dad, who spent 23 years working in various Air Force hospitals knew better.

I thought she was on a rebound, but in the past few weeks she deteriorated rapidly.

Cancer is such a bitch.
