Before I went away, a woman about my own age was complaining of suffering from a lot of life threatening illnesses. I guess you know that if someone cries wolf too often, everyone starts to, well, not take them seriously.

She was talking about having euthanasia, and making plans to go to another country to have it, asking people to go with her. We had started not to take it seriously, and others needed our time for diagnosed problems, family illnesses, and family members dying.

I came back to find out she had a scan, and has lung cancer. She has to go to Aberdeen to get another scan to find out how bad it is now. She is still sure she has the other illnesses, and has phoned the paramedics out three times in one day still. That is by the way, she does have a serious illness.

Part of me knows that to a degree it is what she did to her body. Smoking cheap cigarettes and dope from Paddies market, and the junk that they put in. Still she didn't deserve to get this.

A warning, Dope is not as safe as they make it out to be. This is the second person I know who has Lung Cancer from taking Dope and cigarettes. They put such rubbish in it, and it has more toxins than a ciggie.

If you could be another person for a day, who would it be and why?
Difficult, cos I have never wanted to be someone else, so.....Buffy Season 5, when she finds out that Spike loves her. So I could guide him into the light (so to speak) and be there for him.

Supposed to tag 7 more people, but as you know, I never do. If you feel like doing it, go ahead. *hugs* if you do.
