17. She's an amazing writer

I leaned in and then I cried. Then I got mad at Bobby and now, just want to send her a card telling her how I agree with her. I am so worried about cancer research not being funded. Almost all of my parent's siblings have died of heart disease, colon cancer/disease or cancer of some sort. And Nurses are the bomb. They keep the patients alive in the hospital. We are going to suffer for generations if we don't get that funding restored. Audit it for sure, but keep working on it. I believe in Science.

I am so sorry for her. I'm so sorry for the loss to her children, husband and parents. I can't even imagine facing death at my mid-30s. My heart broke for her.
