Drew
In the midst of my rather pathetic self wallowing night, I've just learned that one of my friends from high school passed away last weekend.
I spent New Year's with him and got to catch up with him after about a year. I learned that his cancer wasn't advancing and he was doing well. He had lost too much weight but his doctors were happy that he was ever so slowly putting some back on. He was incredibly happy, with his life, his friends, his family and his long-time girlfriend. I hadn't seen him smile or heard him laugh as much as he did that night in years.
From half a world away, he will be missed.
