Personally knows one leukemia-stricken woman. Told since a kid she wouldn't live long. Till today, told will not live beyond 30. Had her education, career, family, kids. And such a beautiful person, inside and out, and so happy in spite of it all. In and out of comas, each time possibly the last. Always make me wonder, the way some people out there live their lives (including myself? :(), wouldn't be better to give to those who really treasure them, like many of these terminally ill people. So unfair and so sad.. but God has his reasons (?) and that's life :(
