Everyday.......

I never seem to make it through a week without finding out information on someone I know who is ill.  The times of our world has and is taking it's toll on our human lives.  There have been 2 in-direct people, get ill and pass away in the last 6 to 8 months that one of my family members deemed as close friends.  Now, I hear that one of my family members has a health problem that could become major in the long run.  I've always heard that if you live long enough, you will find that most of your life is filled with people you know, dying.  I'm already tired of this scenario, and don't want to experience anymore of this crap.  What's a person to do?
