we all know we are going to die someday. but someday is this thing in the future that we cant even see. so what do we do when someday suddenly becomes a day in the near future? my roommate found out tonight his mother has bone cancer. i sat with him not being able to think of anything to say. this isnt one of those "they caught it early and can treat it" kind of things. the dr said that with treatment, she can live a few more years. he's here, three thousand miles away from his family, from where he should be. hes been so sad lately and ive tried cheering him up to no success. ive never had someone look me right in the face and tell me their mother has cancer. ive never held someone in my arms and try to comfort them in a hopeless situation.
