My Mum is part of the ABC cluster - it is fascinating and disconcerting all at the same time. They do not have a cause - the cancers were different but so many were pre menopausal and a number of the worked around the same production desk. You have to wonder if even something like a virus could have played a role in being a trigger though most of them believe it was environmental. It would be great if somehow the cluster could provide a clue as to a cause and somehow a cure?
It has been lovely here in Melbourne today - hard rubbish time so a big spring clean in our house. I have been a little teary clearing out many of the kids toys and things. The girls now have a room each and our playroom is gone - they are growing up! I am glad to still be here to watch them grow (though I had a few moments of the sads today as I had always hoped I would be able to tell my grandchildren silly stories about their parents - who knows - maybe that cure is around the corner - maybe, just maybe I'll be one of those who gets into remission long term)
So, when I meditate tomorrow I'll be thinking of you - you will be the one motivating me to get out of bed and "sit" for a while - and I'll think for a bit about how much fun you are going to have when you are not working too hard! :-)
