Susan

A friend of mine is dying of ovarian cancer. Although I don't know what to say or do, I think I will go visit her tomorrow if she is allowed visitors.

UPDATE (Thursday, April 9th): I went to visit Susan today. I didn't go yesterday as planned bc of my bad mood but today was a better day anyway. It was great to see her and physically she looked great. However, it was evident within 5 minutes that cognitively she was not doing very well. She appeared confused at times, experienced delayed responses, and would easily go off into a deep thought in mid conversation. Despite all of that, I spent about 2 hours visiting which was way longer than I anticipated. Her partner came about an hour in which made the visit even better.
