lydyI don't read obits. I'm not that old, yet, and not that interested in the deaths of strangers. If anyone I care about dies, I'll hear about it -- except for Angela. My high school not-quite-sweetheart. (There's a post in my journal a while back about her.) She doesn't want to have any contact with me, for completely understandable reasons. She also has Stage IV breast cancer. Five year survival rate: 16%. So, every now and then, I check the obits on-line. I wonder if this will work. It won't tell me if there's a grave at which to leave roses. I'm not sure why I want to know. It would be rude to call her husband to ask if I could attend the funeral. But I still want to know. I want her to beat the odds, I want her to live forever, but I want to know.
