So I figure this is a place for everyone to grab a mug and toast whoever or whatever they feel. Today, I offer up a toast for one of my best friends, who I've adopted as a brother. I met him at school, my first day, and him, my boyfriend and I have been friends ever since. The two of them are like brothers; he considers me his little sister, and I consider him my big brother. He lost his mother to cancer when he was younger; his father remarried a cancer researcher. He's aiming to go into cancer research himself. His father was diagnosed with cancer of the blood a year or so ago. This morning, he called me to tell me that his father is dying. No one deserves to lose a parent to cancer. But no one, especially not him, deserves to lose both. A toast to my friend, my brother; may he find strength, and peace, and may life be kinder to him from now on. -drinks deeply-

Thought appreciated but I think you misread it. xD His father is dying, not dead yet, and mine's alive and well.

That is sad. -raises glass- To your colleague. May she also find strength and peace.

The new health care law in my country (America), one of the things that was in it was that I would be covered until ... I think it's 25, even if I'm not in school, under my parents' health insurance. I have been very sick, barely made it through my last year of school and have to put off grad school until I'm better. I was very scared that I would lose my health insurance because the law would be ruled unconstitutional. It has been ruled constitutional, so I still have health insurance and can get better in peace.
