A Thought for a Friend
Unfortunately, this post isn't under the jovial circumstances most are with - but it still sits here being read and having been written with a healthy dose of care and regards for a dear friend of mine who was diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia. Having just found that out I sit here in a daze of shock as one would have never thought this could happen.
There isn't much sense in attempting to understand or grasp the gravity of the situation but I want and try to, at 12:18 in the morning just trying to figure out how it is I'm going to do that. Part of me wants to get into my car and drive to Atlanta to see her, her brother and her familiy - and part of me just wants to clench a fist in anger. Life's challenges are not doled out in sympathy... it simply isn't fair.
Katie, my thoughts and care are with and for you. I know you're there with loved ones who will be stalwart companions in your fight. I will be that person for you here and as soon as I can see you. Prayer and praybons alike. You are strong, compassionate and above all - caring. It is by these measures that you will fight this and by god you will come back and rock that bar exam like no Trivial Pursuit 80's Edition has ever seen.

Thanks so much, my dear friend- always for the praybons ;-), but especially for the prayers and encouragement.
