Sad news

Lost my aunt Judy to lung cancer just a bit ago. Hadn't mentioned it earlier because it hasn't sunk in at all. It was, as I said, lung cancer.

Like me, she had a horrible gastrointestinal reaction to the chemo. But, due, probably, to her age and health, she couldn't get past it as I did. It prevented her from continuing chemo. As it turns out, the cancer was discovered so late, it's probably a mercy. She only lasted 10 days after they stopped the chemo.

What's more, she never smoked. Life really just isn't fair sometimes. She was 71.
