    Never take life for granted

    Just found out today that a friend of the family. 50 year old lady. Perfectly healthy started feeling sick last sunday. Was having trouble breathing. Went to the emergency room sunday night. They ran some tests. Monday morning was told she had multiple myloma. Dead three days later.

    Definitely dont put off spending time with family. You'll be glad you did when they are no longer around.

    Agreed. My oldest is graduating in 2 weeks, and I'm wondering where the time went.

    That is sad and horrible, especially if it's someone you know.
    junk food producers are the ones to say thank you to for many of that stuff.

    Good, solid advice. Family should always come first in one's order of business.

    While you sit there watching the graduation, and they are calling out the endless names before yours is called, take time to simply recall his/her youth. You will be amazed at the minds eye visual you will watch.The recollection will put in to perspective the importance or lack thereof of events that took place. It makes you think, makes you better understand and makes you see much more clearly, the proper perspective you hope to have in terms of your younger kids.
    Take it all in. You deserve it!

    Life is short. Enjoy every minute of it. Sorry to hear this bad news. At least she was healthy up until the end. Many suffer for a long time. One positive anyway. Make sure the people that you love hear it from you often.
