When my oldest son Craig called me late last night to inform me that my sister has cancer, I totally lost it. It took me back to my dad's death and my brother's death. I cried and cried and cried. When I awoke this morning, it was like reliving it all over again. Suddenly, the world was real, my sister has cancer. I called her last night. She did not answer. I called this morning. She did not answer. Finally, her daughter called me this afternoon. My sister cannot deal with my feelings or my mom's feelings right now. Makes total sense. I text her. I told her I love her. She text back. She loves me too. Whatever the future holds, I will be there for her. Struggles with being human and being spiritual. Lots of questions raised. Life is only temporary. Letting go of permanence kinda sucks. Yet, the memories, yes, are priceless.
