Live life to the fullest cause you never know when it will be over. My cousin pasted away last night she had just turned 40. A week ago she walked in to emergence on her own not feeling well. It turned out she had TTP (Thrombocytopenia)
http://www.merck.com/mmhe/sec14/ch173/ch173d.html
She was a hard worker, worked hard then most men I know and was always saving for retirement. Well I guess she retired last night. Her husband is a  great guy and she was his would I don't know who he will get by with out her.

Wow, I'm real sorry to hear that Vern. As you've likely seen in another thread here, I too posted bad news of a sudden loss.

You've given me yet another reminder to save my stress for the things that REALLY matter.

I'm so sorry Vern.

You know, we all come with an expiry date but we don't know what that date is.

Vern....Sorry to hear of your cousin's passing.


In dealing with the lost of a good friend recently, this is a story I was told....

Life is a Yard stick...start to finish, at any given time , none of us can say where we are on that yard stick.  Make every day count.

Thanks for all the kind words guys and girl.

Todd yes it is very strange how the people who abuse there bodies seem to live on. But as the song goes only the good die young.

Carl it is strange last night when they were talking about the accident on the news and said it was a Impala. I was glad to see it was a newer one and not yours. But am sorry to hear it was a friend of yours.

I heard this about about 25 years ago for the first time.  It seem to help me to put it in perspective sometimes.

I have a friend who is nearing the final stages of his MS. He's quite religious and he made a somewhat profound statement to me a little while back. He said "I have a lot of questions for God. But when I get there, none of them will matter."

Sorry for your losses guys.   Our prayers our with the families...
