14w3d

A friend of mine died today. She lived a wonderful and long life, and I will miss her tremendously! She was like a grandmother to me. I found out last Sunday that she was going downhill pretty fast (last stages of cancer), but I was busy for a couple of days then came down with a nasty cold. I stayed away because I felt so rotten (not being able to take drugs during pregnancy has it's down side). Last night I was planning to visit her today, even with my cold, because at that stage a few cold germs weren't going to do her any harm. But this morning I got a call that she had died peacefully in her sleep. Goodbye, Avis, I love you.
