man, sometimes you wonder just what and why the fuck shit happens. well, actaully, i know why, but knowing doesn't make it any easier. it was one of those days. i usually try to reserve my snivilling to my own head, although i'm not very good at hiding my displeasures at anything. i guess today was the balance of life right before my own eyes.contrast, the best and the worst... It started out great, my buddy and his wife had a baby boy this morning! they're a wicked cool couple and the kid is gonna have a great life. then a couple hours later i checked my facebook (like you checked yours), and read the status of another friend, not so close, but a friend nonetheless. it read: "i miss my gracie, grace passed away this morning"....grace is his daughter, she's about a year old or so and suffered some difficulties from birth. i forget the terms, enlarged ventricles in the brain. geez. one birth, one death, same morning. how am i drawn into this? my wife was the the doula for the first couple who had the baby boy, and as for baby grace, when we found out that we were pregnant with our daughter we learned that she had the same issues as grace. however, our daughter was born perfectly healthy and all that. when we found out that grace's folk were about to go down the same road we tried to encourage them and let them know that there is hope. now what do i say?
I still believe in hope, i believe there is a positive behind this. I hope they do. they are awesome encouraging, and inspiring folks. it still sucks greasy balls though.
