Suzanne Marie LaPointe

I just read that Suzanne Marie LaPointe died a couple days ago here. She died on the same day as my Aunt actually. I did not know her. I read that she had a wonderful husband, though they divorced, and fabulous children and grandchildren. She was a registered nurse and worked at our local hospital. Hospice and her family assisted her at the end.

Here's the thing though: She died of ovarian cancer, and I'm thinking....wow, that could have been me. Well, me without the fabulous husband whom I divorced or the grandkids. That could have been me just as well as any survivor of that stuff.

I think I need to be more productive to the world. I lived. For however long I continue to live, I think what I do on this earth ought to matter. Get off they duff, Cyn.
