I arrive in to work to find an e-mail from one of my best mates. She's the sister of the guy whose wedding we're going to in the Highlands in October (see my previous posts about where to stay).
His fiancée, who is also a good friend, has just been diagnosed with breast cancer. It must be quite serious as she had a CT scan yesterday, bone scan today, seeing consultant tomorrow and starting chemo pretty much immediately.
Why do bad things happen to such good people?
And to top it off I get a text from my sister telling me my 86 yr old Grandad is going in to hospital for an operation today. When he had his prostate tests just before Xmas (which I knew about) they found a growth on his bladder. No-one thought to tell me about that or the operation.
So please can we have some hitched vibes for Caroline and my Grandad?
Thanks.
