Keeping to Myself This Evening

Today I found out that an ex-coworker of mine passed away. She was not very old... maybe late forties. We were in the same group... at the job that I just left eleven days ago. What was shocking for me is that I also found out that she had sickle cell disease. I wish I would have known that to had an opportunity to bond with someone or share knowledge and experiences. I do not know if she died from complications from the disease. Needless to say, William immediately came to mind. I am feeling very sad.

My thoughts and prayers go to her family and friends. I believe that she has two young sons. I will keep you in my prayers.

I also always pray for a cure for sickle cell disease.

So many thoughts in my mind, but I feel like a wreck.

Rest in Peace D.
