28. My wife lost one of her best friends that way at 36
Edited on Tue Apr-15-08 10:59 PM by DFW
She was diagnosed at 34, always figured she was too young to have to worry about
something like that. She was smart and beautiful, and everybody loved her. She quit
and fought it as best she could, but at age 34, cancer cells spread quickly and
aggressively. She dies 2 days after her 36th birthday. It made us want to go blow
up every tobacco shop we saw, and rip up every ad poster showing glamorous people
smoking as if it contributed to their good times. It certainly didn't give our friend
a lot of good times.
