The view from my office door...

is making me sad.

It is the sister of a friend of mine who is really struggling right now with her illness.

She is a beautiful woman, usually bright eyes, personable, gifted in that she sings like an angel and is a talented actress.

Right now, she's wearing dirty clothes, her stomach handing out over her pants, her hair unwashed and her eyes dull.

If she would accept she has an illness and work to manage it so she could have a quality of life she would become that bright eyed, talented woman again. But she doesn't and so she won't.

I've known her since high school and seeing her like this and not being able to help breaks my heart. It really does.
