It’s one of those days again… I’m feeling slightly stressed because there’s too much going on. My friend is still in hospital and I’m waiting for T. to give me a call about her condition. They started surgery this morning at 11.00 and when I called him earlier he was on his way to the hospital. They’re trying to remove the blood clot from the brain which is something I really don’t want to think about at the moment. I am supposed to design her wedding announcement because they’re supposed to get married in June. If her situation gets worse I will book a flight, no matter what…
I hate having to wait I just wish I could do something, it’s somewhat frustrating… 
I’m also not happy about my own situation, I received the results of the tests yesterday: they’ve found abnormal cell growth so the surgery will take place in March and after that I will have to have it checked every six months. I guess I’m feeling a bit down today and I reckon I have a good reason[s] to feel that way… Bear with me, it will pass.
Yesterday morning

Life
When we came home tonight I received a phone call from TH., telling me that my friend CH. is in hospital with something that resembles a stroke [that makes two]. 
She is still conscious but in severe pain [headache] and has to be watched for the next twenty-four hours. Tomorrow morning she will need to have a CT scan done. Unfortunately I will be at the hospital myself till midday so hopefully I will be able to get in touch with TH. once I’m back to get an update on her condition.
It makes you realise life is too short and every day is a new day, a new start, a new chance to make it the best day of your life. If I won’t post for a while I might have decided to fly to Amsterdam…
Courage, it would seem, is nothing less than the power to overcome danger, misfortune, fear, injustice, while continuing to affirm inwardly that life with all its sorrows is good; that everything is meaningful even if in a sense beyond our understanding; and that there is always tomorrow. ~Dorothy Thompson
