Very sad day

I woke up to find out that Karen's daughter, Ashley, passed away this morning from the injuries she sustained in the car crash yesterday.  I can't even begin to imagine what Karen and her family are going through right now.  I'm not sure if it's the shock and sadness of the news or the fact that what happened has reminded me how precious life is and how easily it can all be taken away from you, but I'm not so worried about my last treatment on Friday.  How could I possibly compare the few days of misery with the anguish from losing one's own child?  The side effects following my treatment seem so insignificant right now and as morbid as it may seem, I'm glad my mind has been taken off the last treatment and the days of torture to follow.
