For Granted
I was over at Larry M's friend's page on mySpace this morning - she is battling cancer and needs friends - if you haven't been over there yet, please do so: Donita. When you visit her page, make sure to read the blog "What cancer patients want you to know" - it is profound and important that you know these things not just for supporting colleagues through serious illness but for life itself. She is writing of the human condition.
It got me thinking of my friend Jo, who lost her long battle with cancer a year ago (almost to the day). I don't want to write too much here, except to say that she is missed and loved still. I have, however, posted an older song, For Granted, which was written as I watched her battle with that bastard disease, giving whatever support I could.
For Jo, for Donita, for everyone else who battles cancer - please take me for granted.
