Hi Marcia

Read about your morris dancing post the second time around with an update on Dave's.
It is really sad.
I just newly joined a job and my immediate boss and another boss and another colleague all have cancer.All this while, i had heard of cancer to someone i didnt directly know, but after working wth my boss in such close contact, it is very disturbing to know about cancer and its powerful grip and how it doesnt let go and keeps coming back till it knocks you down. What is cancer, did it exist in the olden days? how is it caused, there is always some vague factors associated with its causes, how can people avoid cancer ?
it seems larger than aids. Atleast for AIDS, you can stay away from certain things and can be sure it wont affect you, but what of cancer. Is there anything worse than cancer affecting innocent people and taking their dear and near souls away before taking the life

What can we do ,but just hope and pray and how helpless are we, in the face of death and nature and what not, we are but mere pawns in nature's hands and yet we build our lives, fight over nothing and lead a miserable life when really everything is just a chance , your life is a chance, your occurance is a chance and we get squished just like we squish an ant or an insect by our foot.
