Cancer....

....är ett hemskt ord. Cancer har tagit ännu en av de underbara människor som fanns i vår närhet. Idag är mina tankar hos mina nära och kära.

Death is nothing at all
I have only slipped away into the next room
I am I and you are you
Whatever we were to each other
that we are still
Call me by my old familiar name
Speak to me in the easy way you always used
Put no difference into your tone
Wear no forced air of solemnity orr sorrow
Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we always enjoyed together
Play, smile, think of me, pray for me
Let my name be ever the household word that it always was
Let it be spoken without effort, without the ghost of a shadow in it
Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same that it ever was
There is absolute unbroken continuity
What is death but a negligible accident?
Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?
I am waiting for you for an interval somewhere very near, just around the corner
All is well.
Nothing is past, nothing is lost
One brief moment and all will be as it was before
How we will laugh at the trouble of parting when we meet again...
