Currently watching Dr. Oz show (while sucking on ice cubes as I try to relieve my thirst).  Reality star, Big Ang (Angela Raiola) is discussing her health crisis with cancer. Terrifying to us all, for sure. Truly it takes a great deal of courage to be so vulnerable, so honest especially publicly. However I do feel her openness is helping others get through whatever hardship they are facing. Or, help those only dealing with trivial (fixable) experiences, they can begin to deeply reflect. Realizing just how fortunate they may be.

Thankfully she has her friends. Her family. This is the magical, miraculous combo that makes breathing through unimaginable, unthinkable adversity much more endurable. If only people who love us really knew the healing/helping powers their unconditional love/loyalty, support, generosity, unselfishness... has on the well being of the suffering. See, if only we can get that combo in a bottle to give as curing, life saving; magical, miraculous medicine to the entire world.

Sincere compassion goes out to Big Ang and her loved ones. I've only watched Mob Wives a few times, but she seems like a genuinely lovely person, which proves, hardships don't discriminate. Anything can happen to anyone at anytime. Best to practice the art of authentic kindness and humility and sincerity because one can/will never know if they'll  need that  life saving "combo medicine". Safe to be/stay worthy when needed/wanted. Life happens...
