And I thought life was actually getting better until today...

So, my mom calls me about 4pm today. I thought she was calling to dicuss our plans for tomorrows out of town shopping trip, but I was wrong. She was calling to tell me my childhood best friend had passed away this morning at our local hospital. I was floored...kinda. It took awhile for it to set in. I had to listen to James Blunt for awhile afterward, too. She was dignosised with cervical cancer 2 years ago. Everyone that it was gone. It came back about a month ago and took her very quickly. My mom thinks she gave up. Maybe....maybe not. Who really knows, right? I was actually angry at first only because this family is soooo backward(Old Fashion Hispanics). My most fondest childhood memories are with this woman. It's sad. She never got to have children, never married, nothing. Here I am....not realizing even though I also have medical issues myself I still take life for granted. Today, after everything, I promised myself no more of that. This is the reason I blogged it. It will be forever my reminder.
