On Monday night, we got the sad news that a friend of ours had died of a massive stroke.

She was 43. She had her first stroke, due to an aneurism, 8 or 9 years ago, and had lived with the sword over her head since. She was 5 months pregnant when the first one hit her, and her baby girl will be 9 years old in July.

You never know. Which, in many ways, is a good thing. Our friend struggled for all these years with the fear of leaving her children behind, and sadly, that’s what happened in the end.

We try to learn from these things. Learn to live life now. Hard lessons though.

Stumble it!

That is so sad. I am sure she made sure her daughter knew she was loved.
