I'm honestly not being a smart alec, but, I'm comfortable with that looming light at the end of the tunnel...makes it easier to find my glasses, and car keys....I just wish that we could all go well into our 90s, compos mentis, and in our sleep.

Yep, it's apparently our (my age group) turn in the barrel - I lost a pal of 53 years, yesterday evening, to the complications of Diabetes.

Prayers up.

but it ain't the age group. A pal of mine just buried his 28-yr-old friend due to leukemia. A 34-yr-old pal of mine just died 2 weeks ago of leukemia.

The good Lord has His own plans and reasons ..... and sometimes, even when we know and trust in that, well, we just don't find the comfort.

Cheers,

Carl

I lost my 45 year long best friend and hunting buddy to cancer just 2 months ago.
Treatments gave him almost ten more years but things were not the same.

Sorry to hear about you friend. That doesn't sound like a very good
diagnosis. Miracles do happen, though.

The best to you and him.
