This is 40
Today was one of those days where each time you turn around something else seems really wrong. It’s also one of those days where you are thankful for another day of health and opportunity.
In the small school where my daughter used to attend, the father of 2 young girls died from complications from a car accident, the mother of a fifth grader succumbed to lung cancer, and a 15 year-old I coached at a basketball camp last year was diagnosed with a rare liver disease.
I went for a long walk to try and make sense of it all tonight, and still can’t. But, while out enjoying the fresh air, I came across this song on my iPod and felt it was appropriate for today.
This is for Emily, who tonight is at Duke Hospital awaiting a liver transplant. See you soon.
