About 3 weeks ago I lost a friend to leukemia.
He was young, about three years older than me, energetic, vibrant -- just a wonderful person. It was not fair that he died, and what was even less fair was that it was 6 weeks from diagnosis to funeral.
It's just criminal. Wrong, awful, painful, desperately sad.
I'm working through my grief, and getting over it in my way.
Then I heard about the death of another friend. Just now.
This happened some years before. I'd lost contact with the person and his wife -- they were back in Blighty and had no connection with Israel so we drifted apart. A chance comment on Facebook and I suddenly hear the "news" that he was sadly killed in a car crash several years ago.
Some days I simply cannot fathom life.
