Changes

There have been a lot of changes in my life this year. Last Thursday, my friend and co-worker received a call from her husband. He told her that he thought he was having a heart attack. Today, they took him off life support. My heart breaks for her and her family. She had such a good relationship with him, and I know that she will miss him terribly. I didn't really know him, but he seemed like such a nice guy. I wish there was something that I could do for her, but right now, all I can do is pray.

Monday, one of my co-workers told me that one of my former students had passed away. I don't know what happened, but he was only 24 years old.

As I was waiting in the dentist's parking lot, a student called and said that she wouldn't be in for the rest of the week. Her brother and two cousins were killed in a car wreck. I am really in the dumps. There has been so much death lately.

I am sorry that this is so depressing, but I just needed to get it off my chest.
