Aw, Gaugie. I think I know what you mean. People die. And what you are saying may be something like what I think about not *hoping* about results. They'll be what they'll be. Certainly we can try and support him through the nasty stuff of chemo and listen to his worries. But then.. I remember when we went up to the river when my friend drowned but they hadn't found her yet. Everyone kept spinning tales that would have her being found the next day. Like she was washed up on shore and was walking around the woods in a daze. I just kept my mouth shut and nodded now and then. "Um, she's been dead for hours" wouldn't go well. They're hopes got them through the night. They would have just made me crazier. Different brains.

Gotta run to writing group. Later, bud. Spinspin.
