Well you know what dubbs say: "Better is the day of one's death then the day of ones being born." I always hated that saying made it sound like you were nothing until you were dead. But then we weren't supposed to talk to the dead or give any kind of homage... So what the heck? You're never important?!

It was because of his death that I got involved with the boyfriend who led to my eventual DF. I just wonder how things would have turned out if he hadn't died. Would I be where I am today? Or would I have eventually gotten here (married with kids) but with just a different man? Brings to mind all sorts of questions about fate.

I am sorry to hear that your family is suffering with cancer. Its horrible to have to watch.
