Brooding on Mortality

A good friend of mine is seriously ill, going for some surgery next week: lumpectomy and hysterectomy. I'm worried about what they'll find when the pathologists get their hands on her tumors, and I'm thinking: uh, oh, this is what Philip Roth was writing about in Everyman. I'm brooding on mortality here.

Hard times. Give her a gentle hug and a warm squeeze of the hand from me, please.
