Just one more reason why I'll likely never ever REALLY retire.

The sad thing is, this happened to a fried of mine.  She retired, and had a heart attack the next day.  It was a very sad time, she was putting off everything fun until she retored and never gotthe chance.

That was a sad story.  Life can be like that.  But, I know a lady recovering from brain cancer, and she's surprisingly well after surgeries and treatment.  When she first heard, she was devastated (nearly two years ago) and threw herself at me, bawling.  I held her for awhile and then looked her in the eye and suggested:
None of us knows what tomorrow might bring.

I've heard of that too where people retire then not too much later they're gone.
