A mail arrives with bad - the worst - news. The wife of an old friend from the dim and distant past is in the same position as me - cancer has snuck up on her and spread. What an evil thing this is, quietly, disgustingly, doing it's work before it's announces itself.
They say that misery loves company - well, not in this case. I want no-one else to go through this, no-one. Especially not someone I am connected to, now doubly so. I have never met, and know little about K, save certain family details, and that she has exquisite taste in film.
But, speaking directly to K now, the point of this post is to send you strength and support, hope that things go absolutely as well as they can, let you know that I am thinking of you, just like everyone else you know.
