loracsFirst, let me say none of the following is about me, but have happened to my co-workers, friends and family in the last two days - worlds have turned in a mere 48 hours.
Father's death in Wisconsin
Cousin's death in Las Vegas
A continent and a ocean away, a brother's death in Ethiopia
A diagnosis of a chronic and painful disease
A possible loss of a job because one big company ate another one
A Sunday night ER visit ending in a two day (and counting) hospital stay.
A confirmation that an 18 year old young man will leave his family in a week for four years in the army
The first of several co-workers received the news she will be laid-off as of Aug. 22
I'm walking through wall after wall of sadness. I need a little space before the next block slides into place. Please.
