Gary and Carol remain in our prayers ...

I have long said that the next second is not guaranteed to anyone ... We have all seen terminally ill people live for years, and seemingly healthy people die at very young ages ...

Very recently, the drummer from our band in NY passed after battling cancer for a couple of years ... all five of us were probably closer than most 'blood' brothers ... whenever I called him, he would just say "well, I'm still here, guess the Lord doesn't want me yet, but when he does, I'm ready" ...
My wife's sister has been battling pancreatic cancer for almost two years, but she lives her life as if nothing is wrong ... I call her the 'poster child' for this disease ...

We are all going out of this world the same way ... I can only hope I would have the same attitude as these people when my time comes ...
