I have been living pretty much alone the last few months while my wife is being nurse to her mom and sister in Florida. This means that I have been doing some grocery shopping, which has become a learning experience.
Today, while racing through the aisles, I heard someone call my name. When I looked around, I noticed a friend that I had worked with on the Force. He and his wife were doing their weekly shopping. After a few minutes of chit-chat, he tells me that his life was changed forever this past Tuesday. I asked why. He then told me that he had been diagnosed with Stage 4 Prostate Cancer and Stage 4 Bone Cancer. Well, you could have knocked me over with one finger.
He just retired last year. I have thought of nothing else all day.
