My Friend's Dilemma

I felt nervous last night because I had a hard time falling asleep. I don't know why, but maybe it's because of a recent visit I made to a friend who is terminally ill due to breast cancer. I can't help it, but every time I close my eyes, she pops into my mind. I am really very bothered of what happened to her. She used to be very energetic and very bubbly and is always wearing a smile on her face. I know she's sick but I was not expecting she's in that bad shape already when I saw her because every time we talked on the phone she always crack jokes and everything seems to be very okay. But when I saw her, it was the exact opposite. She was lying there very weak and looked very small and frail. She lost so much weight already and can barely move by herself. I learned that she's been bedridden for over a month already and her condition deteriorated drastically. She's also in great pain. I was so shocked with what I saw. I was not able to hold back my tears when I saw her and I left her with a heavy heart. Since I still can't sleep though it was very late already, I grabbed a magazine by my bedside and started to browse in order to induce sleeping. I then came across an article that featured a woman who underwent a San Diego Breast Augmentation. It showed pictures of the woman before and after the procedure to see the difference and the result is great. I wonder if there would be complications as well just like cancer. I regret reading that article because it just made me more anxious; thus, I ended waking up very late the following day. Too bad since I need to prepare breakfast early or my child will be late for school.
