[quote=Anonymous]That's great OP. I could have said just as many positive things about my mother - who was a community leader, scientist, mentor, world traveller.... Unfortunately she was also exposed to Agent Orange extensively as a child because it was in pesticides applied to the crops her father farmed. So she had unusual and awful cancers which ended her life well before she wanted to (at 79). Nothing she could possibly have done about that. My father died at 78. He had lifelong health problems stemming from a drunk driver hitting him head on in his 20's. Nothing he could have done about that. Both of my parents were a success story for thriving as long as they did. Probably best to keep the assumptions and judgments you're making from your very limited experience to yourself.[/quote]
