For the second time in less than a year, we have had bad cancer news in the family. Last year just before I got in my car to drive to DL, I checked my email one last time before I left and learned a very close friend had stage 4 colon cancer. I tried very hard to not dwell on the news but it was always in the back of my mind on my trip.
Fast forward to today. I am planning another trip to LA with a side trip to DL. I am supposed to drag a bunch of my mother's "stuff" to my sister's house. My mother got diagnosed with Alzheimers about 6 weeks ago and I am cleaning out some of her stuff, old family antiques, to bring to my sisters house in June. The exact same week I went last year. Today she , Sister, called. She has in operable "bile duct/liver cancer" (who knew you could get cancer in your bile duct??) I am still planning on going, both to her house and onto Disneyland. Again I will try not to dwell on it, but it will be hard.... some things Disney Magic just can't fix
