No one ever said life was fair.

Ok, on top of my Mom and Gail, a friend's mom just died from kidney cancer.
Please remember the Sack family in prayers for peace and comfort.

Our best friends, a couple whose daughter and my daughter have been best
friends since preschool, each have/had mothers with cancer. Donna's Mom has
been dealing with metastatic breast cancer, after a break of 12 years. Bob's
Mom had kidney cancer, diagnosed about 9 months ago.

Last Friday, it became clear that treatment wasn't working, and the family
was asked what arrangements were preferred for long term care. Saturday, the
whole family got together to try and decide between a nursing home or home
care with hospice (they decided the latter), but the decision turned out to
be moot. Their mom took a very sudden turn and passed away that evening, a
few hours after the meeting

Cancer sucks.
