R.I.P. Tammy Fae

[niankhsekhmet]

I just got word that Tammy Fae has passed to the Beautiful West. I didn't much agree with her religious views, but no one deserves to suffer so. Cancer is a horrible disease.

I just read (and posted) about this as well.

I don't believe in anything definitive, really. But I do think it would be nice if everything found peace, satisfaction and clarity when their time comes

I'm finding it a bit strange to be so.. non-judgmental
it's like... a change of pace

Thanks, Dean. Judgement is God's alone, in my view. And I also lost my own mother to cancer. It is a horrible, horrible way to go. It made my heart ache to see her interview a few days ago with Larry King. Tammy gave it the good fight and it was very brave to insist that her doctors not tell her how much time they thought she had. When I saw her, I judged a week or two at most. Thank God it didn't go even that long.

You know, when I saw in that very odd show, the Surreal life, I finally saw her as a little more human. Maybe that's what most of us need. To see the humanity in others, even if they can't.


...but I could be wrong.

It's nice to know that she no longer has to fight it.
