the passing away...

it seems that i can´t leave work for any amount of time withoug someone dying. just today when i returned to work the first message i got was that one man had passed away yesterday. i was not completely shocked considering the fact that all persons here are old and weak. in some ways it is good to know that people pass in a good way, by that i mean fall asleep at night and don´t wake up.
this may sound strange to those who don´t work in this field but im getting a real touch of the beginning and end of life as we know it...

the upside to this story is that upon arrival today the first i heard was info about this passing. because last week i had been back one shift and only on the second shift back i was informed about another man´s passing away. i was not pleased with this lack of communication and let it be heard.
