i was just thinking about how crushing ill health is. it's your body and it's what keeps you alive. when thing go wrong, the chances of you surviving can be so slim depending on what's wrong. you could have cancer sitting inside you, waiting to show itself and limit your life to even a matter of weeks, even days. so many types of health related issues can just kill you dead. often you won't know until it's too late and you're utterly powerless to stop it.

and that is truly terrifying.
